The Colour of Time

In this debut collection, na N Cheallaigh has produced a volume of elegy touched with beauty. Whether delving into the histories of victims and survivors of war and inhumanity, or drawing on her own personal sense of loss, she has crafted poems that touch the heart and soul. These are poems full of erudition, empathy, and lyric grace. They vividly embody the past, distant and near, recapturing lost lives and hidden stories, particularly of those stoical and determined women who kept going despite all that sought to stifle their art.
