Fiction by Jeanine Cummins.
Ginny Doyle wakes up in the mid-nineteenth century to the potato blight and an Ireland just beginning its descent into ruin. Over a hundred and fifty years later, her descendant Majella wakes up in New York City with a difficult case of postpartum depression. The women are linked by sorrows of different kinds, and although it may be tempting to say that Majella’s is the the lesser trouble, that is definitely not the author’s point
Ms. Cummins really gets the reader into the mind of her characters and draws you into their worlds. This was a really good story.
I also read by this author: American Dirt.
