Leaving Ireland: The Long Road Back to America

By Jane Fadely

After nearly three years living in Ireland, changes in Ireland's immigration policy forced Jane (and many other Americans) to return to the USA, not wealthy enough to be welcome as anything other than a tourist in "The Land of 100,000 Welcomes." Overcome by loss even before leaving the place she called home, she begins the difficult journey away from Ireland. Even back in America, Ireland's pull is strong. Filled with homesickness and haunted by memories of the life she loved in County Kerry, she struggles to detach and be an American in America again. Spend time with Jane in her last days in Ireland and travel with her back to America, from Oregon to North Carolina, and get ready for tears and laughter, new characters, discoveries, and adventures on the long road away from Ireland. LEAVING IRELAND picks up where CHICKENS IN THE GARDEN, WELLIES BY THE DOOR left off. Return to Ireland and enjoy a simple life filled with kind friends and laughter, turf fires and tea, music and flower-filled gardens, and long walks in the rain. Experience the culture shock of being back in America and despite feeling displaced and homesick, look for and find humor and beauty wherever you can. Seek new adventures and enjoy new delights as you search for a place where you can finally say, "Ah, yes, now this is beginning to feel like home." [AUTHOR PAGE: http: //amazon.com/author/vjfadely]
