On Canaan's side

Barry, Sebastian 1955- (author.).

Summary: "A first-person narrative of Lily Bere’s life, On Canaan’s Side opens as the eighty-five-year old Irish émigré mourns the loss of her grandson, Bill. Lilly, the daughter of a Dublin policeman, revisits her eventful past, going back to the moment she was forced to flee Ireland at the end of the First World War. She continues her tale in America, where—far from her family—she tastes the sweetness of love and the bitterness of betrayal."--
