If
you read Nory Ryan's Song, you may be wondering what happened to
Nory. Maggie's Door takes up the story. Da has been
gone for a long time. Granda and Celia have gone to Galway to search for
him. Nory's friend Sean has taken his mother and Nory's brother Patch
to Galway to catch a ship to America. And now Nory is on her way
as well. There is nothing left for them in Ireland but hunger and
death. Not wanted to leave but knowing she must, Nory sets out on
a harrowing journey to 416 Smith Road, Brooklyn. |
