Irish Firebrands: a novel (Volume 1) by Christine Plouvier Pdf

He's an Irish political journalist in search of his past. She's an American genealogist trying to forget hers. But what's the real reason that keeps bringing them together? The Celtic Tiger economy is losing its fangs, so journalist Dillon Carroll must rent out his ancestral home in the Gaeltacht. The worsening exchange rate is depleting genealogist Lana Pedersen's budget, so the Baby boomer backpacker breaks into a vacant farmhouse for shelter. From the night the Irishman discovers the American at Drumcarroll, their tangent lives catalyse the chemistry between their beleaguered bodies and stormy spirits. How far will a man go, to know his father? To become a father? All his life, Dillon Carroll has felt cut off from the past by his lack of parents. Half his life, he has felt cut off from the future by his lack of posterity. Lana becomes Dillon's last hope for reconnecting with his roots, and with the meaning of his life: to fulfill his dream of belonging somewhere, to someone, forever.

Irish Firebrands by Christine Plouvier Pdf

The Celtic Tiger economy is losing its teeth, so celebrity journalist Dillon Carroll must rent out his ancestral home in the Gaeltacht. The worsening exchange rate is depleting the travel budget of Mormon genealogist Lana Pedersen, so the baby-boomer backpacker breaks into a vacant farmhouse for shelter. From the night the Irishman discovers the American at Drumcarroll, their tangent lives catalyze the chemistry between their beleaguered bodies and stormy spirits. Dillon grapples with a lifetime of losses: driven by compulsion and caught in the toils of transference, he now pursues Lana with the tenacity of an investigative reporter. Lana's efforts to counter Dillon's obsessions and control her own rollercoaster emotions are complicated by her involvement with Frank Halligan, a dairy farmer who possesses unusual avocations and a way with women; and her mentorship of troubled teenager Medb McManus. Two lands. Two lives. Two loves. Terrible questions - tragic secrets. Touched by madness - torn by vows. Fleeing the past - fearing the future. A quest for deliverance - and evocative evidence that love is eternal.... IRISH FIREBRANDS, a contemporary romantic-inspirational melodrama, is set against the stunning scenery, stirring music and social controversies of 21st-century Ireland, and portrays the psychological crises that can shake the foundations of faith.

Trauma, Memory and Silence of the Irish Woman in Contemporary Literature by Madalina Armie,Veronica Membrive Pdf

This volume studies the manifestations of female trauma through the exploration of multiple wounds, inflicted on both body and mind (Caruth 1996, 3) and the soul of Irish women from Northern Ireland and the Republic within a contemporary context, and in literary works written at the turn of the twenty-first century and beyond. These artistic manifestations connect tradition and modernity, debunk myths, break the silence with the exposure of uncomfortable realities, dismantle stereotypes and reflect reality with precision. Women’s issues and female experiences depicted in contemporary fiction may provide an explanation for past and present gender dynamics, revealing a pathway for further renegotiation of gender roles and the achievement of equilibrium and equality between sexes. These works might help to seal and heal wounds both old and new and offer solutions to the quandaries of tomorrow.

'This Great Firebrand' by Leonie James Pdf

William Laud, Archbishop of Canterbury (1633-45), remains one of the most controversial figures in British ecclesiastical and political history. His rise to prominence under Charles I, his contribution to the framing and implementation of highly contentious religious policies, and his subsequent and catastrophic downfall remain central to our understanding of the coming of civil war. This book presents Scotland as a case study for a fresh interpretation of Laud, his career and his working partnership with Charles I. This approach throws much needed light on the depth of Laud's engagement in kirk affairs and reveals the real reasons for his ostensible abandonment by the king in 1641, enabling a better understanding of Anglo-Scottish politics in the early Long Parliament as well as developments connected to religion and the 'British Problem'. Importantly, the book demonstrates that Laud's involvement in Scotland was broadly consistent with, although differing in detail from, his approach in England and Ireland. It represents a major contribution to key debates on the nature of religion and politics in the 1630s and early 1640s and to current thinking on the role of Charles I and William Laud in the formulation of ecclesiastical policy, the 'British problem', and the causes of the British Civil Wars.
