taking our culture forward

A complete recording of one of the most vivid and accomplished creative collections of Manx folklore written in the past 50  years.

‘Twisting the Rope and other folktales from the Isle of Man’ by Kathleen Killip is here recorded in full by Ian Cottier, the Island's leading exponent and interpreter of her beautiful works in a soft Manx dialect.
