Description
The Girl Who Came Home A Novel of the Titanic Hazel Gaynor's poignant novel weaves together fact and fiction to explore the impact of the RMS Titanic's tragic fate on its survivors and their descendants. In 1912, a group of Irish emigrants set sail for America, hoping to find a better life, but for one young woman, the journey is bittersweet. Seventeen-year-old Maggie Murphy must come to terms with leaving behind her sweetheart in Ireland as she navigates the challenges of steerage on the ill-fated ship. When disaster strikes, Maggie survives, but vows never to speak of that terrible night again. Decades later, a new generation faces its own struggles when Great Nana Maggie shares a long-held secret about the Titanic, leading to unexpected reunions and a fresh start. This heart-wrenching novel is a powerful exploration of love, loss, and resilience, as two women from different eras find their way towards each other.
