Set in 1848 in Ireland ... during the time of The Great Hunger ... this is a quartet of individual tales of four people with inter-related histories: The Orphan, The Master, The Landlord, The Mother. This is a most excellent book ... to not only vicariously obtain the feel of the poorhouse experience, but to get another perspective on the tumult, irony and tragedy of this period in Irish history, which filled 19th century American poorhouses with Irish refugees.
