The Irish Hope
The American dream and the immigrant reality collide for Norah McCabe as her adventure continues. Fourteen-year-old Norah and her family have settled into life in New York City's notorious Five Point neighborhood. The family does what it can to make due, from sweeping at a bank to doing laundry and sewing for rich people and working in a factory. Norah misses the fresh air and green countryside of Ireland and dreams of going back. To make money for a ship's ticket, she disguises herself as a boy to sell newspapers and then learns how to hawk wares on the streets. Even as she dreams of returning to Ireland, Norah is drawn into the magic of New York City—from riding in a fancy carriage to visiting Barnum's American Museum where she has a conversation with Walt Whitman. She meets new friends and is introduced to the theatre and other entertainment, where fate may have different plans for her. Roam the streets of 1840s New York City as Norah begins her journey to becoming an American. Where hope is more than just a word if you can dream big and work hard.
