Description

Nory Ryan’s circle of relatives has lived on Maidin Bay at the west coast of Ireland for generations, raising a pig and a couple of chickens, planting potatoes, getting by. Annually Nory’s father is going away on a fishing boat and returns with the rent money for the English lord who owns their cottage and fields, the English lord bent upon forcing the Irish from their land so he can tumble the cottages and clear the fields for grazing. Times are never easy on Maidin Bay, but this year, a terrible blight attacks the potatoes. No crop means starvation. Twelve-year-old Nory will have to summon the courage and ingenuity to seek out food, to seek out hope, to be able to assist her circle of relatives live to tell the tale.
