About this product

Product Information

A vibrant collection of local tales hand down through generations of storytellers Limerick - a city of Vikings, Normans, kings, and common people; a city that gave its name to a short funny poem is a city full of stories. The mighty River Shannon that runs through Limerick city is a river born long ago and far away, when Sinann, a young woman seeking wisdom, stole hazelnuts from a pool, and got herself carried away by the overflowing waters. Aine, the bright and beautiful goddess of sovereignty, queen of the fairies, resides beneath the lake at Lough Gur in the form of an old hag, knitting a green mantle. While Gearoid Iarla, the young Earl of Desmond, and a reputed poet-magician, rises from Lough Gur on his silver-shod white horse every seven years. In this unique collection, storyteller Ruth Marshall re-tells tales of mystery, magic - and more mundane matters - from the rich land of Limerick.
