About this listen
Today we’re continuing on with the Táin Bó Cúailnge (the Cattle Raid of Cooley), using the Penguin Classics translation by Ciaran Carson. The pair follow Queen Medb and Ailill's army as it marches for the prized brown bull, encounter prophetic signs and curses, and introduce the unstoppable young hero Cúchulainn. Between battlefield omens, brutal skirmishes, and Cúchulainn's violent boyhood exploits, the episode blends mythology, geography, and grisly action.
