Description:
Brooklyn (Paperback)
A devastating story of love, loss, and one woman's terrible choice between duty and personal freedom. Set in Ireland in the early 1950s, Eilis Lacey faces scarce opportunities. When her sister arranges for her to emigrate to New York, Eilis must leave her family and home for the first time.
In a crowded lodging house in Brooklyn, Eilis is reminded of her sacrifices and feels homesick. Just as she begins to forge friendships and perhaps something more, news arrives that sends her back to Ireland, where she confronts a terrible dilemma—a choice between duty and her great love.
Long Island (Hardback)
Long Island is Colm Tóibín’s masterpiece: an exquisite novel exploring whether one can truly return to the past and rekindle a lost love. A man with an Irish accent knocks on Eilis Fiorello’s door on Long Island, changing everything.
Eilis and Tony have built a secure, happy life since leaving Brooklyn—perhaps a bit stifled by close in-laws, but twenty years married with two children looking towards a bright future. Yet, this stranger reveals something that makes Eilis question her life choices.
For the first time in years, she feels far from home, prompting her to turn back to Ireland. Back to her mother, back to the town and people she left behind. Did she make the wrong choice in marrying Tony? Is it too late to choose a different path?
