Dàn nam Ban

Dàn nam Ban by Ceitidh Chaimbeul is a much anticipated first collection from a writer who was was the Scottish Poetry Library’s first Gaelic ambassador.

This book provides a voice to women’s stories across generations, highlighting both historical and contemporary issues. The collection also aims to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of Gaelic culture and language.

Dàn nam Ban is a work of folklore, family history, motherhood, and the impact of the past on the present. The focus is on women’s experiences, both personal and communal, and how these narratives shape our understanding of identity and heritage.
