Retrospections of Dorothea Herbert Book (COSDA Press)
Retrospections of Dorothea Herbert, Paperback €20
Based on the earliest published text, and enriched by material from the original manuscript, this volume reproduces the text of Dorothea Herbert’s ‘Retrospections of an Outcast’ alongside her 13 colour illustrations (for the first time in print) and her family tree. Together, they reveal a work that is as much a visual and imaginative creation as it is a written one.
Published by COSDA Press, as part of the ‘Tides of Time’ Visitor Centre and exhibition in Carrick-on-Suir, Co. Tipperary, this edition reconnects Herbert’s story with the place that shaped it, inviting readers to encounter her world in a fuller and more immediate way.
