What is recorded here
Peadar Ua Laoghaire is a birthplace in Clondrohid, County Cork, Ireland. Perhaps the Irish writer (1839-1920) first heard the shape of his own life in that month, April 1839, when the field gave up more than it should have. Maybe he stood at the edge of the world and the world leaned back. Imagine him young, unnamed, certain the ground was listening.
