The Bright Plain

Volume 2

Illustrator: Dunnett, Caitriona

Beschreibung

Two short stories by Michelle Dooley Mahon; 'The Deacon' and 'The Meadow of Women', in which ritual devotions are placed in contemporary contexts. She writes of illness, suffering, devotion and healing with startling simplicity and a dose of humour. These are not metaphors or coincidences, but real events, requiring neither explanation nor justification. Alongside are toned cyanotype prints.
