Greta Cahill never believed she'd leave her community in the western world of Ireland until she found herself over a ship destined for New York, along with her sister Johanna and a boy known as Michael Ward. Labeled a "softheaded goose" by her family, Greta discovers that in America she can show up in love, increase her own family, and make a living. Though she longs to return and show her family what she's made of herself, her decision to spare her children understanding of a secret in her earlier causes her to keep her life in New York separate from the life she once cherished in Ireland, and tears her in addition to the people she actually is closest to. Even fifty years later, when the Ireland of her memory bears little resemblance compared to that of current, she fears that it's still possible to lose all when she discovers that her children—with the best of intentions— have conspired to unite the worlds she’s so carefully held separate for many years. A amazingly old-fashioned novel, The Walking People is a debut of amazing range and power.
