“A great Irish novel whose deep understanding of time, place & people cold only have come from within.” Eilis Dillon was a renowned writer famous for her unique style. She received many awards including German Juvenile Book Prize, Lewis Carroll Shelf Award, etc.

This is the story of two women loved by two men; one a landlord who pities the poverty stricken people, the other a committed Irish nationalist and condemned to prison. A tale of divided loyalties and passionate loves. [Google Books]
