Un fantasma in gola esplora la femminilità e il desiderio. Doireann Ní Ghríofa racconta la maternità nella sua dimensione universale, e ne fa metafora della scrittura capace di ricucire le ferite più intime e creare echi tra universi lontani:un’opera sul suono che allontana e unisce l’ultimo sospiro di un uomo che muore e il primo vagito di una nuova vita.
