Inhaltsangabe

A young girl, un-dead and un-alive, brought to the shores of Iberia and nurtured to become the saviour of Madrid. A crippled boy drowning in the waters of Loughmichnois, called to preserve the secrets of a civilisation. A nun who instigates the bombing of Neo Dublin to reset a futureless people and start afresh. Times of darkness, worlds seemingly beyond salvation, people who have never known joy. What do they have in common? Three entirely different versions of Saint Ciarán to restore hope, faith, and brightness for humankind.

"Weaving together history, myth, and dark visions of the future, Labarta creates a strange and beguiling exploration of Spanish and Irish identities. This is a beautifully written, subversive, and endlessly inventive novel."--Naomi Krüger, author of May

"Exciting and Provocative."--Toby Litt, author of A Writer's Diary

"Intricate, compelling and clever--I loved this book."--Jenn Ashworth, author of Ghosted: A Love Story

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Inés G. Labarta is a queer fiction writer and immigrant currently living in the northwest of England. Originally from Madrid, she's lived in Athlone, Edinburgh, Lancaster and Plymouth before settling back in Lancaster (one of the most gothic and witchy towns in England). She has published a collection of middle-grade novels - Los Pentasónicos (Edebé, 2008-2010) and two novellas - McTavish Manor (Holland House, 2016) and Kabuki (Dairea, 2017). Her forthcoming novel, The Three Lives of Saint Ciarán, (Blackwater Press, 2024) was partially inspired by her time in Ireland, where she lived near the intriguing ruins of Clonmacnoise. Her short stories have won awards like the Autonomous University of Madrid Short Story Prize, and have been published in places such as Extra Teeth, Toasted Cheese Literary Journal, Oranges Journal, and the Lancashire Short Stories anthology. She lectures in Creative Writing at Lancaster University.
