Michael Collins is a legendary Irish figure most of us have heard about for as long as we can remember. But his love life, his charisma and his emotional journey is something that we rarely explore.
That is exactly what a new album dedicated to the Irish republican hero is hoping to do for listeners when it is released on October 14. Torn in Love, Torn Apart: The Story of Michael Collins & Kitty Kiernan has been produced by Sri Lankan born Irishman Mustafa Khetty, whose admiration and adoration for Collins is clear.
Mustafa spoke to Dublin Live about what the album explores, namely Collins' and Kiernan's loving yet complex relationship, introducing us to a familiar historical figure in a rather unfamiliar way. He said: "Michael Collins was the quintessential Dennis the Menace; his escapades, his theatrics and his daring."
