The Red Mouth by Sheila Armstrong Book Launch
Please join us on Thursday 23rd July for a reading and discussion to celebrate the launch of The Red Mouth by Sheila Armstrong. All welcome. Doors at 19:30. Free entry.
About the book:
When a dog finds a strange, alien antler in a restored bog, its owner is drawn back to the rich peat to keep searching. It is not one stag skeleton that is buried there, but dozens – an ancient dying ground of the Great Irish Elk. Other things have surfaced from the bog, including a two-thousand-year-old body, mutilated and serene. Fifty years ago, a young archaeologist named her Belroe Woman, and dedicated his life to telling the story of her sacrificial death. While state and public treat the bog body as a national treasure, others must reckon with its otherworldly influence over their lives. Haunting and lyrical, The Red Mouth – an béal rua – is the story of these two discoveries and the four strangers who become intertwined in their wake.
