Description
Myths and legends, ageless rivalries, ghosts from the past and spirits awakened, these are the playthings of a child's imagination in Kilkenny. I Sailed the Sky in a Silver Ship is the true story of one woman's coming of age in Kilkenny. In the 1940s, children huddled breathlessly to glean from their elders tales of woe and whimsy, learning what they chose from mistakes made long ago.
As the years advance into the 1950s young Theresa Lennon must put aside her childhood dreams in order to strive for peace in her tumultuous home life, and fight for her own independence while trying to hide the secrets of a family headed for destruction. In the midst of chaos comes solace, in the form of an old man who would help her find the truth. |
