Description
Leaving Ireland is a gripping novel about an Irish mother's journey to a new life in America. Forced to flee her homeland, Gracelin O'Malley embarks on a perilous transatlantic voyage with her young daughter.
In 19th-century New York, Gracelin struggles to adapt to the harsh realities of immigrant life, where crime and prejudice threaten the future of those she loves. As she navigates this unfamiliar world, she reunites with her brother and a man from her past, and becomes embroiled in the abolitionist movement.
This sweeping novel brings the Irish immigrant experience in 1840s America to vivid life, following Gracelin's bold and dramatic journey through extraordinary times. With its rich historical context and compelling characters, Leaving Ireland is a powerful tale of resilience and survival.
