О овој е-књизи
A rags to riches romantic saga of an impoverished young woman who escapes Ireland for a better life and a new family in nineteenth-century London.
In the poor mud of Ireland, she dreamt of London, of a chance to do more than survive.
Fleeing her fanatical republican family, Molly O’Dowd arrives nearly penniless in London at the end of the nineteenth century. Plunged into the world of East End gambling houses and brothels, Molly invests what little money she has in a typing course, her only way out. This investment will lead her on the path to establishing herself as a woman of power and means.
From the rough-and-tumble world of the London docks to the luxurious hotels and restaurants of the fashionable West End, Molly captures the temper of the times—the unrest of the laboring classes, the courage of the suffragette movement, the ravages of the First World War. Molly wins and loses in the tempestuous world of the capital, but her energy and determination never flag and tides change when she meets a man who could match her in business . . . and in love.
Praise for the writing of Teresa Crane:
“A smashing storyteller.” —The Irish Times

О аутору
Teresa Crane had always wanted to write. In 1977 she gave herself a year to see if she could, and since then has published numerous short stories and several novels published in various languages.
