They Shut Me Up (Signed (Hardcover) Tracy Fahey (PC COPY)

Life is tough. & then there's The Change...
A woman, ignored & invisible, starts to discover her voice. But whoor whatis speaking though her?
Part body-horror, part feminist fiction, They Shut Me Up poses the question: how can we retell historic female narratives?

"In reclaiming the tale of an Irish witch, Tracy Fahey writes about storiesthe ones we tell ourselves & the ones others tell about us. Steeped in Irish history & myth & suffused with women's rage, They Shut Me Up is a luminous recounting of how unearthing the past can liberate us in the present." Lynda E. Rucker (The Moon Will Look Strange, Now Its Dark) Lynda E. Rucker (The Moon Will Look Strange, Now Its Dark)

"This is a glorious feminist revisionism of how powerful older women are seen in folklore. Tracy Fahey gives voice to the silenced & it's a battle cry." Priya Sharma, author of Ormeshadow and Pomegranates.
