Mantles: Encountering Brigid is a collaboration between Kildare writer Shauna Gilligan and Roscommon based visual artist Margo McNulty. This book reimagines new representations of Brigid as an archetype of the sacred feminine through engagement with artefacts and site visits, creating a deeply personal narrative in words and images. Beautifully written and presented, this book captures the spirit of Brigit.

This novel follows the lives of the Horn family. We see them through relations, friends, and acquaintances whose paths cros and intertwine as journeys are made through Dublin parks, pubs, hotels and parties.
