Description for An Trodaí Agus Dánta Eile: The Warrior and Other Poems
Paperback. Bog/Paperback 152 lch. Carachtar éachtach í an Trodaí – alter ego gach mná gur mithid di an fód a sheasamh. Níl aon oidhre eile uirthi ach na gaiscígh mhná sna scannáin Shíneacha, a ritheann go hingearach suas fallaí agus a throideann go fíochmhar ar dhíonta na dtithe agus ar bharraíocha na gcrann. Bean is ea í gur nós agus gur béas aici a bheith ar an imeall, ag siúl ar fhéar faille, ag féachaint síos i nduibheagán an aigéin mhóir. Duibheagán inmheánach atá i gceist chomh maith le ceann seachtrach. Mar sin féin, pé samhailteacha scanrúla, sinseartha agus muinteartha a chíonn sí sa duibheagán céanna, ní scanraíonn sí. Bhí leithéid seo an Trodaí de dhíth orainn le fada i saol na Gaeilge. Gura fada buan céad chnuasach filíochta Dairena Ní Chinnéide, ar a son féin agus ar son scríbhneoirí ban uile na Gaeilge.– Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill An Trodaí agus dánta eile – The Warrior and other poems is a bilingual poetry collection from Dairena Ní Chinnéide. In it, she introduces the persona of The Warrior / An Trodaí, a woman who is ‘lán de laigeacht agus fíochmhaireacht in aon turas’ ‘full of weakness and fierceness at once’. The Warrior is a woman of contrasts. She craves love but fears betrayal; she is defiant but seeks to be understood; she is a modern woman who appreciates the importance of tradition. Dairena is well known for her work with Raidió na Gaeltachta and this collection contains many references to her native Kerry, in particular an Blascaod Mór and Corca Dhuibhne.
