Day 07 of 20
Mythology? Dark fantasy? The Tain translated from the Irish by Thomas Kinsella. Táin Bó Cuailnge
#TheTain #Mythology
The following day Lárine came to take on Cú Chulainn, with the girl there to cheer him on. Cú Chulainn went for him with his bare hands and forcibly disarmed him. Then he grabbed him and shook him and squeezed him till the shit ran out of him, polluting the ford and stinking up the air all around. Cú Chulainn threw him into Lugaid's arms. For the rest of his days his bowels didn't work right. He was never without chest trouble, and eating was a constant pain. Yet he is the only man who met Cú Chulain on the Táin Bó…
…Cúailnge and escaped with his life - not that it was much of a life.
I mean this is Irish literature, translated from the Irish, by an Irishman (Ciaran Carson), in Ireland.
Even then I was not prepared for how Irish it would be.
