About this listen
From 1845-1847, the British government reshaped Irish society, with disastrous results. Ultimately, a million lives would be destroyed, and another million people would flee. These are two stories of those lives.
A woman cursed by a priest stands alone on a clifftop trying to summon up the courage to jump. Her brother stands accused of murder and rebellion against the state. Accompanied by a troop of soldiers, a landlord destroys the homes of his tenants, leaving them to die on the hillsides. The British government is handed many opportunities to avoid disaster during the Irish famine but will they take them, or have they lost all humanity?
