Deirdre of the Sorrows Part 1 – audio story

duration – 32m 02s

Is beauty, for a woman, a blessing or a curse? And if a curse, why? A girl is born, a prophecy is made and so begins one of the greatest stories of Irish mythology, the story of Deirdre Of The Sorrows–imagine the story of Helen of Troy, but this time told from Helen’s point of view.

Her epic story, retold in four gripping parts by Giles Abbott, is violent, sensual, funny, hugely romantic and tragic, and though it’s feet are in the past (Iron Age in origin) it is a story whose eyes are firmly fixed on the present.

An audiobook with no written script told for you in four gripping episodes!
