- Synopsis
- When shipwright Alex Burnside and his family move out of Glasgow’s tenements into the suburb of Flannery Park, they’re filled with hope at their prospects of a better life. But the Depression has other plans. Seventeen-year-old Alison is the most affected. She’s caught between financial dependence on her family and the possibility that her brilliant academic performance might lead to the university. And when she falls in love with her mentor and teacher Jim Abbott, Alison finds that she has even more choices to make--between love and loyalty, marriage and a medical career. Must everyone make sacrifices to find their place in the world?" You'll find many more books by Jessica Stirling in the Bookshare library.
