520 . ‡a"In Cork, Ireland, a derelict Victorian mental hospital is being converted into modern apartments. One passerby has always flinched as she nears the place. In another time, she might have found herself held within those walls. She notices a sign, the first of many. Guided by an irresistible impulse, she follows them. FOR SALE. The letter L, broken free from a pane of stained glass. Whispers from the river. Guided by an irresistible impulse, she follows them all. She trespasses, steals, absconds from the routines of her life--mother, spouse, daughter--as a chorus of insistent voices calls to her. They murmur from archives, old casebooks that recorded their progress and failures--no change. They slip through stairwells and walls. They belong to the women who knew this place best, and with them--with one in particular--she feels a connection. She is drawn out; she knocks on a door in the night. Will this investigation, this journey, this haunting, take her too far into the past or will it bring her to a new understanding of what she might yet make of the future? A work of intense attention and tenderness, Doireann Ní Ghríofa's Said the Dead breaks boundaries between past and present, the imagined and real, history and fiction, to make something new and lasting. A ghost story and a reclamation, it is an investigation into the dangers of knowing ourselves and the past." -- Provided by publisher.
