Description

She named a pantheon of gods yet appears in no stories of her own. Her children shaped Irish mythology, but she remains hidden in the shadows. Danu—the mysterious mother of Ireland's divine tribe—has eluded both ancient scribes and modern scholars for centuries.

Danu: The Shadowed Mother of the Gods explores this compelling enigma at the heart of Celtic mythology. Following clues scattered across medieval manuscripts, ancient river names, and archaeological evidence, this thoughtful investigation examines what we can—and cannot—know about this shadowy goddess whose significance persists despite her textual silence.

Perfect for mythology enthusiasts, Celtic heritage explorers, and anyone intrigued by the hidden feminine divine, this book illuminates a profound paradox: the necessary mother who generates gods but remains herself just beyond our reach—perhaps exactly as she was meant to be.
