A young Irish woman immigrates to America for a better life and evolves as a person as she struggles to understand her new environment and yearns for home. I was intrigued and frustrated by this story at the same time. Eilis is thoughtful and ponders her actions and those of others and too often choses non-action, non-response. A coming of age in America story that eventually fell flat for me.
