A well written story of a young woman who journeys to Alaska from Ireland to escape a way of life and finds what she is looking for in a different culture.
16 August 2012A memorable and poignant love story
Ah, there is nothing more wonderful on a sunny British afternoon, than relaxing in the back garden with an excellent book.
15 July 2012Hauntingly beautiful
A book that takes you into 19th century Alaska from the viewpoint of a reluctant young Irish missionary, who cannot accept the colonial view of the native Americans she is supposed to teach, convert and of course patronise.
2 July 2012Beautifully written
This is a wonderful story that is beautifully written!
12 June 2012Lovely Comparison of Cultures with Surprise Ending
In the late 1800's, Maire believes she is the child of her Irish father and a selkie who had to abandon her for her own seal folk in the sea.

9 June 2012Review of Selkie Dreams
It's when I read books about the harsh clash between missionaries and those they seek to convert that I realize just how judgmental, harsh, and brutal colonialism is.
