Star of the Sea
Author: Joseph O'Connor
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback
Helpful Score: 1


Excellent writing and very good historical fiction about a ship carrying many poor Irish escaping the famine and the horrible feudal system in Ireland. Very good character study, but pretty grim. But it does show the story from the British and the Irish sides.
