Born to a travelling family on waste ground in the heatwave of 1976, Roma the gypsy horse is destined to pass through the lives of many different people over more than two decades. She experiences love, companionship, cruelty and indifference as circumstance and harsh necessity bring change, always moving her on. But at Roma's birth a bond was forged that can never be broken. Running alongside her story, like a heartbeat, is that of traveller Bill Feeny, the man who can never forget her, and of Elsa, his daughter.SOLD chronicles Roma's part in many different lives, the people she encounters, and her endless capacity for trust and loyalty until she eventually comes full circle, reunited with her roots.Powerful, poignant, sometimes harrowing, SOLD is a fresh and unflinching take on the great tradition of stories about the bond between human and horse.
