About this Event

Born in Dublin, Éilís Ní Dhuibhne is a notable writer, folklorist and translator of Peig Sayers, the 'Queen of Irish Storytelling'.


In this special event, Éilís explores the interaction in her work between folklore sources and contemporary writing – which has been so fruitful in Irish and Scottish literature – and the power of storytelling to animate archives.


This event is part of the Scottish International Storytelling Festival.
