Just finished re-reading Brooklyn. Ready to dive in!

KCofKaysville @SaraBeagle I liked Brooklyn a while back and the film too. Hope it is good. 3d

It‘s 1976 and nearly 25 years since Eilis returned to Brooklyn after visiting to her Ireland home. With her marriage on shaky grounds and her mother turning 80 she finally returns to Enniscorthy for an extended stay. This is a slow roll (I resisted peeking to the final pages) but Eilis‘ narrative represents the stories of so many lives. The lives where one can almost put themselves first. I hope we get to meet Eilis as she neared 70! 👇

marleed I was entertained seeing how long it would take me to scroll through 4 years of posting of Brooklyn to snap my posting for a background pic! 6d
jlhammar I loved Brooklyn. Really looking forward to this! 6d
marleed @jlhammar Oh so did I! I‘m always intrigued when an author revisits a character years after the original story. I thought this book was very true to Eilis and Tom‘s characters. 5d
