N\u00ed g\u00e1 dhom a r\u00e1, nach \u00e9 seo an ch\u00e9ad saothar againn \u00f3 pheann chumasach an \u00fadair ild\u00e1naigh seo, Colm T\u00f3ib\u00edn, agus, is d\u00f3cha go bhfuil cuid d\u00e1 shaothar l\u00e9ite agat cheana, leabhair ar n\u00f3s…The South; The Heather Burning; The Blackwater Lightship; The Master; <\/strong>agus, The Sign of the Cross<\/strong>…..T\u00e1 cl\u00fa idirn\u00e1isi\u00fanta bainte amach ag an \u00fadar cumasach, \u00c9ireannach, seo, cl\u00fa at\u00e1 tuillte, agus tuillte go maith aige, n\u00f3 tr\u00edna st\u00edl, tr\u00edna chumas, agus tr\u00edna chur chuige, \u00e9ir\u00edonn leis greim sc\u00f3ige a bhreith ar a l\u00e9itheoir, sa chaoi nach gcuireann s\u00e9 sin a leabhar uaidh, go dt\u00ed go mb\u00edonn an deoir deiridh de di\u00fagtha aige. N\u00ed haon ionadh mar sin, gur cuireadh tr\u00ed cinn d\u00e1 leabhair ar an ngearrliosta do Dhuais Booker, fi\u00fa. <\/p>

Suite in \u00c9irinn<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

Su\u00edonn an T\u00f3ib\u00edneach t\u00fas an sc\u00e9il seo, Brooklyn, ina dh\u00faiche fh\u00e9in, th\u00edos in \u2018Enniscorthy\u2019 i dt\u00fas chaogaid\u00ed na haoise seo caite, tr\u00e1th raibh c\u00fal\u00fa eacnama\u00edochta eile faoi l\u00e1ntseol abhus againn, ag an am. Is \u00ed Eilis Lacey<\/strong> an pr\u00edomhcharachtar sa sc\u00e9al seo. Bean \u00f3g, a bhfuil a cuid scola\u00edochta cr\u00edochnaithe aici i gCeardscoil an Bhaile, mar a raibh s\u00ed ag gabh\u00e1il don Chuntasa\u00edocht. Bh\u00ed c\u00f3na\u00ed uirthi i Sr\u00e1id na mBr\u00e1ithre, agus \u00ed in \u00e9int\u00edos lena m\u00e1thair agus lena deirfi\u00far, Rose. Fuair s\u00ed obair Dhomhnaigh i siopa U\u00ed Cheallaigh, sa mbaile m\u00f3r, ar a \u2018seacht agus s\u00e9 phingin\u2019 sa tseachtain! Ghlac s\u00ed leis an obair sin, n\u00f3, faoi mar a chuir an t-\u00fadar \u00e9……..<\/p>

\u201cEilis realised that she could not turn down the offer. It would be better than nothing and, at the moment, she had nothing.\u201d<\/p>

Tar \u00e9is di seal a chaitheamh i mbun an ghn\u00f3 sin, shocraigh s\u00ed ar dhul ar imirce, go Brooklyn, Mheirice\u00e1, tr\u00ed chabhair \u00f3 shagart thall, agus ar chomhairle a mh\u00e1thar is a dheirf\u00e9ar, Rose. Bh\u00ed go maith……..Chuaigh s\u00ed i mbun oibre i siopa m\u00f3r thall, agus ag an am gc\u00e9anna, thosaigh s\u00ed ag freastal ar ch\u00farsa\u00ed Cuntasa\u00edochta i gCol\u00e1iste Bhrooklyn, thall, agus tr\u00edna staid\u00e9ar, d\u2019\u00e9irigh lei an ch\u00e9im chu\u00ed a bhaint amach, sa cheird ch\u00e9anna sin, rud a chuirfeadh ar a cumas obair mhaith a fh\u00e1il, i ngn\u00f3 eic\u00ednt, abhus n\u00f3 thall. I rith an ama seo go l\u00e9ir, thit s\u00ed i ngr\u00e1 le hEad\u00e1ileach fir, agus ag an am gc\u00e9anna, choinnigh s\u00ed lei ag obair i ngn\u00f3 an Phar\u00e1iste. <\/p>

Bris gan choinne<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

Bh\u00ed chuile sh\u00f3rt ag dul ar aghaidh go bre\u00e1, nuair a fuair s\u00ed sc\u00e9al \u00f3 Enniscorthy gur bh\u00e1saigh a deirfi\u00far, Rose, agus ba \u00e9 deireach na mbeart \u00e9, gur shocraigh s\u00ed ar dhul abhaile go h\u00c9irinn, ar feadh seal, le taca\u00edocht eic\u00ednt a thabhairt d\u00e1 m\u00e1thair, b\u00edodh nach mbeadh s\u00ed in am don t\u00f3rramh, n\u00f3 don socraid. Ach, tuig an tEad\u00e1ileach fir \u00fad an c\u00e1s ina bhf\u00e1gfadh sin eisean, agus chuir s\u00e9 ina lu\u00ed ar Eilis, go raibh baol ann nach bhfillfeadh s\u00ed ar Bhrooklyn go deo ar\u00eds, mura bp\u00f3sfadh siad, sul a raghadh sise abhaile ar chuairt. Rinneadar sin. P\u00f3sadh r\u00fanda a bh\u00ed i gceist aige, ad\u00fairt s\u00e9…<\/p>

\u201cI don\u2019t mean in a church and I don\u2019t mean we live together as man and wife and we don\u2019t have to tell anybody. It can be just between the two of us and we can get married in a church when we decide after you come back.\u201d<\/p>

D\u2019imigh Eilis abhaile, agus i gcionn seachtaine, n\u00f3 mar sin, shroich s\u00ed Enniscorthy, agus mhothaigh s\u00ed Rose uaithi, agus de r\u00e9ir a ch\u00e9ile, d\u2019\u00e9irigh lei dul i gcleachtadh ar an saol mar a bh\u00edodh, le linn a h\u00f3ige. Chomh maith le sin, fad is a bh\u00ed s\u00ed ar saoire abhus, thosaigh s\u00ed ag dul amach le fear \u00f3g a raibh breac-aithne aice air sular fh\u00e1g s\u00ed an t\u00edr seo, a ch\u00e9aduair. D\u2019\u00e9irigh siad an-mh\u00f3r le ch\u00e9ile, sa chaoi go raibh fadhb le scaoileadh anois ag Eilis s\u2019againne. <\/p>

Fadhb le scaoileadh<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

Ar shocraigh s\u00ed ar fan\u00faint abhus in Enniscorthy, agus an fear \u00f3g seo, Jim Farrell<\/strong>, a ph\u00f3sadh, fear \u00f3g a chuirfeadh saol an mhada bh\u00e1in in \u00e1irithe di feasta, n\u00f3 an raghadh s\u00ed ar ais go Brooklyn, lena p\u00f3sadh leis an Ead\u00e1ileach fir sin, Tony, n\u00f3, Antonio Giuseppe Fiorello<\/strong>, lena ainm cheart a thabhairt air, a fhoilsi\u00fa os comhair an phobail, agus os comhair an tsagairt. <\/p>

Le freagra na ceiste sin, agus le s\u00e1samh ioml\u00e1n a bhaint as an \u00farsc\u00e9al iontach, corraitheach, seo, faoi dheacrachta\u00ed na deora\u00edochta, na suir\u00ed, agus an choinn\u00edll daonna, t\u00e1 fait\u00edos orm, go gcaithfidh t\u00fa an leabhar fh\u00e9in a fh\u00e1il, is a l\u00e9amh, mar t\u00e1 m\u00e9 cinnte go mbainfidh t\u00fa s\u00e1samh agus toit as.<\/p>

An-sc\u00e9al, an-l\u00e9amh, an-chur chuige. Anois an t-am le do dheis a thap\u00fa, m\u00e1s uait, scil, eala\u00edon, agus cur chuige spreag\u00fail, an \u00fadair \u00c9ireannaigh seo, Colm T\u00f3ib\u00edn, a bhlaiseadh ! <\/p>
