A reworking of the key Irish myth exploring the life and loves of
the great Irish hero Cuchulainn, making connections between events
in the story and places in Ireland which can be visited There was a
time in Ireland's history when chivalry and chieftainry ruled the
land, when the country was occupied by bands of warriors who spoke
only their native tongue and who cherished their heritage and
civilization. This was the time of Cuchulainn. All of the warrior
bands had their own Seanachie, a person responsible for recounting
the deeds of times past, a chronicler of the ages. Cuchulainn was
their most famous subject and hundreds of tales of his heroic and
terrifying deeds--such as single-handedly defending Ulster at the
age of 17, and his battle frenzy in which he knows neither ally nor
enemy--have survived to this day. The seminal work on Cuchulainn is
dense and complex. This is an exhilarating new telling of
Cuchulainn for our time, full of valor, passion, and bloodshed.
