Description
Description
Away by Jane Urquhart is a lyrical and sweeping historical novel that follows one family across generations, from nineteenth-century Ireland to Canada.
Beginning on the rugged northern Irish coast in the 1840s, the story moves through immigration, loss, memory, and survival as the family’s history unfolds across Grosse Île, the Canadian Shield, Port Hope, Montreal, Ottawa, and the shores of a Great Lake. Urquhart blends personal tragedy with major moments in Canadian history, including immigration, settlement, and Confederation.
Richly atmospheric and deeply emotional, the novel explores identity, belonging, displacement, family memory, and the powerful ties that connect people to place and to the past.
A strong choice for readers who enjoy Canadian literary fiction, multigenerational sagas, historical novels, and beautifully written stories of migration and family legacy.
