Inniu, labhrann Tristan Rosenstock leis an údar Majella Ní Dhomhnaill mar gheall ar a leabhar nua Mise do Mhamó, scéal cumhachtach comhaimseartha a léiríonn an choimhlint idir an phróifíl shnasta ar Facebook agus an fhírinne lom. Insíonn Majella dúinn mar gheall ar an triúr ban ó thrí ghlúin den teaghlach céanna atá lárnach sa scéal seo, agus faoin mbealach gur theastaigh uaithi aghaidh a thabhairt ar an andúil, aonrú sóisialta, agus foréigean baile sa saothar próis cumhachtach seo.

Today, Tristan Rosenstock talks to author Majella Ní Dhomhnaill about her new book Mise do Mhamó, a powerfully contemporary story that exposes the difference between the way we portray our lives online and the bitter truth that lies behind our airbrushed profiles. Majella tells us about the three women from different generations within the same family who are at the heart of the story, and why she felt it was important to tackle issues such as addiction, social isolation, and domestic violence in her stunning new piece of prose.
