Her focus here is Ireland, and its goddesses, whose myths are intimately connected with the landscape. After all, the country itself *is* named after a goddess...Monaghan traveled to Ireland for the first time in her early adulthood, in search of her Irish roots. She was so moved by the experience that she has returned many times. And in this book, she takes us on a "tour" of what she has experienced in her journeys. We travel vicariously to the rock said to be the Cailleach, the field where Macha ran, Medb's burial mound, and the shrine of Brigid at Kildare, where the sacred fire has recently been lit again.But lest you think this is just fluff, Monaghan does not ignore the bad stuff either. Woven together with her beautiful spiritual experiences and warm friendships are the dark threads of the Troubles, the potato famine, and the English invasion, which forever haunt Ireland. And also, there are the personal tragedies. Some of Monaghan's friends have died over the years, ahd she pays them tribute here. The result is a book by turns uplifting, melancholy, and sometimes riotously funny, but always emotionally moving. Read this book if you are interested in Ireland--a land which, like the Cailleach, has survived against the odds. ### ⭐⭐⭐ More of a personal reflection than a study *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 27, 2022* I was hoping for more historic data. This is more like a memoir. You will enjoy it if that is what you are looking for. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ How could you NOT love this book? *by M***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 12, 2011* What fun! I loved this book. Patricia -- the author, I feel like I know her after reading this -- meanders along in a way that at first seems a bit confusing. Confusing, until you realize she is doing it purposefully. Her book meanders in the way that the land, the streams, the rivers of Ireland meander. They take their time and go their own way. And so it is with Patricia. She doesn't want you to speed through things or to find the quickest way from point "A" to point "B." She really helped to make Ireland come alive for me (I am yet another Irish gal born in exile) in terms of its myths, its history, its geography, etc. She was very honest all the way, sometimes embarrassingly so. Which of us (if you're reading this book, you KNOW you have!) have not questioned aloud that other world of faerie? But how many have gotten an answer? Patricia has in unexpected ways, and perhaps you will recognize your own "answers" too after reading this book.If nothing else, it was a pleasure to read Patricia's quest for her ancestry. I felt like I was walking along with her and her friends, drinking tea and pints along with them in the pubs! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/12236682-the-red-haired-girl-from-the-bog-the-landscape-celtic](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/12236682-the-red-haired-girl-from-the-bog-the-landscape-celtic) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-12*
