Publisher's Synopsis
'In revealing Mariah's story, Curtis creates an elegiac and moving portrait of Irish rural culture. While the narrative looks backwards over Mariah's extraordinary life, this is also a hugely relevant piece of writing for anyone visiting the region today, as Curtis is highly adept at recreating the mystical and complex atmosphere of life on the Burren, a rugged and wild landscape that remains largely untouched by modern life.' - Sunday Telegraph
