      A dark & witchy feminist retelling of the Irish myth of The Children of Lir. Aífe marries Lir, a chieftain with four children by his previous wife.

Retold through the voice of Aífe, Savage Her Reply is unsettling and dark, feminist and fierce, yet nuanced in its exploration of the guilt of a complex character.
