Aonghas MacNeacail - excerpt from The Great Snowbattle

Aonghas MacNeacail has been a leading voice in Gaelic poetry for decades. As part of our celebration of the Winter solstice, he reads in both Gaelic and English, an excerpt from his epic poem about elemental conflict; the monstrous power of the blizzard, the swirling whiteness, from which emerges memories, visions, premonitions and hopes.
