THE INSTANT IRISH TIMES BESTSELLER A WITCHY, RADICAL RE-IMAGINING OF IRELAND'S MOST BELOVED SAINT AND GODDESS 'A bold, luminous gem of a novel and an utter joy from start to finish' ROSIE HEWLETT 'A must-read for anyone who is interested in Irish Mythology' SHAUNA LAWLESS A beautifully written and powerful exploration of one of the most fascinating women in Irish myth' -CAROLINE LEA 'Radiant, inspiring and empowering' BEA FITZGERALD 'One of the best books I've ever read' AMY MCCULLOCH 'A stunning new voice' - PATRICK NESS 'An astonishing talent' - KATE HEARTFIELD In a wild, ancient grove at the edge of winter, a desperate girl prays to the gods for her freedom. Born to a slave mother, sold in marriage to a brutal husband, none have ever listened to Brigid's prayers. But this time, a goddess answers . . . with a vision that will transform Brigid's path forever. Ireland lies on the precipice of change. The new Christian god is coming, a faith that Brigid can bend to her will, building a sisterhood and sanctuary for women with nowhere else to turn. As their numbers grow, so too do the rumours - of just what powers women can hold when they come together. But power, like a flame, consumes as it grows. As Brigid rises, challenging kings, defying bishops, soon she must reckon with what she herself has become. And as her enemies draw closer, eager to reclaim all she has taken from them, what - or who - will she sacrifice to hold on to her legacy? A radical reimagining of Ireland's most beloved saint, Brigid is the story of a woman who could never be caged - by men, by gods, or even by history itself. _______________ PRAISE FOR KIM CURRAN 'An epic tale of war and femininity ... a brilliant work of mythology, fantasy and history' - HANNAH KANER 'Like Madeleine Miller Curran takes centuries of Irish legend and harnesses powerful retellings for modern readers' Juno Dawson 'May be the most important book you will read this year' LUCY HOLLAND
