Child Of My Heart |

Book Review
by Willard Manus Theresa, in the course of fighting off grief and evil in defense of her young charges, loses some of her own goodness (as well as her virginity), but comes out the stronger and better for it. McDermott, a masterful chronicler of Irish-American angst--as well as poetic realism--has extended her novelistic range in this strong, moving novel. |
