Krátky popis
The outstanding novel from the Carnegie Medal-winning, former
Laureate na nA“g Sarah Crossan, thought-provoking and incredibly
moving, it explores love and family during The Great HungerIreland,
1846 Nell is working as a scullery maid in the kitchen of the Big
House. Once she loved school and books and dreaming. But there's
not much choice of work when the land grows food that rots in the
earth.Now she is scrubbing, peeling, washing, sweeping for Sir
Philip Wicken, the man who owns her home, her family's land, their
crops, everything. His dogs are always well fed, even as famine
sets in. Upstairs in the Big House, where Nell is forbidden to
enter, is Johnny Browning, newly arrived from England: the young
nephew who will one day inherit it all.And as hunger and disease
run rampant all around them, a spark of life and hope catches light
when Nell and Johnny find each other. This is a love story, and the
story of a people being torn apart. This is a powerful and
unforgettable novel from the phenomenally talented Sarah Crossan.
