Product Description
A bittersweet tale of a girl trapped between two worlds, juxtaposed with a woman struggling to make peace with her past. As a young girl, Alice Carey moved with her family from Kerry, Ireland to Manhattan. When her mother found work as a maid to legendary Broadway producer Jean Dalrymple, Alice was exposed to a life she had only seen in films. The radical contrast between 1960s rural Ireland and cosmopolitan Manhattan caused confusion and conflict. Yet many years later Alice and her husband fell in love with an abandoned Georgian farmhouse in West Cork. This memoir explores the childhood memories awoken as Alice and her husband undertake restoration of the farmhouse. B&W Photos.
