• The Madness of Sweeney Aug 13, 2025

  

  In the chronicles of Ireland, few tales are as strange and beautiful as that of Suibhne Geilt—Sweeney the Mad—who was once a proud king but became a wild man of the woods, living among the birds and beasts while composing poetry of heartbreaking beauty. His story is one of pride, curse, madness, and ultimately, a kind of redemption that comes through suffering and the deep wisdom of the natural world.
