Aprašymas
A powerful five-volume story of a working-class Irish Catholic family in England by a "novelist of distinction and originality" (E. M. Forster).In five novels, published between 1935 and 1958, James Hanley chronicled the struggles of an Irish Catholic family of seafarers in a fictional port city based on Liverpool, evoking the harsh realities and frustrated longings of Britain's working class. The complete saga offers abundant proof that Hanley "is that rarity of a genuine original" (The New York Times Book Review).
The Furys: As matriarch Fanny Fury struggles to hold her family together, youngest son Peter returns from seminary in disgrace--dashing her hopes for him--and her other son Desmond becomes involved in union organizing and a violent strike, in this "novel of turbulent power" (The New York Times).
The Secret Journey: Fanny Fury continues to sink deeper in debt to moneylender Anna Ragner, who has a grip on all the families in this port city. But it is Peter's involvement with the woman--complicated by his affair with his brother's wife--that will lead to a violent end.
Our Time Is Gone: As World War I tears Europe apart, the Fury family is disintegrating as well. With her husband gone back to sea and her beloved son Peter imprisoned, Fanny collapses. Slowly she is able to pull herself up by doing service as a cleaner for troopships.
Winter Song: After Denny Fury's ship was reported torpedoed, his wife staggered into St. Stephen's Hospice, prepared to die. But when the shipwrecked old man appears, the reunited couple decides to finally return to Ireland, no matter how difficult the journey.
An End and a Beginning: After serving fifteen years in prison, Peter Fury has been released. With his parents gone, there is nothing left for him in England. A pilgrimage to Ireland to see their final resting place will start him on his new life where he may finally find freedom.
