Product Description The tumble of Gaelic history through the Highland Clearances and the Irish Land Wars provide this novel's momentum. Threaded through the historical drama is a modern American woman's quest for rooted identity and her affair with an Irish Republican. At the story's center is the enigma of Rona, the Selkie. Is she a mythic creature, or the shattered consequence of social injustice? While the ancestral story moves through struggle, loss, and fortitude, the modern story tangles with questions of history's legacy -- how we make choices about what to carry, and how to move forward with inherited burdens of trust. About the Author As well as writing eight nonfiction books, Loren Cruden is a book reviewer and novelist. The Selkie's Lineage was shortlisted for the Dundee Book Prize in Scotland. Cruden now lives on First Thought Mountain, in northeast Washington state.
