Upon finishing Suzanne Kelly�s poetic novel Stolen Child I marvel at how accurately and completely the author captures the complexities of the Irish-American experience. Every page sings with particulars�familiar customs, superstitions, song lyrics, dance steps, history, snippets of the Irish language, clan loyalty, upward mobility, and the fierce Catholicism that spawns the familiar wry humor on one hand and coexists with belief in the faeries on the other. The book is a remarkable read if one is looking for authentic cultural immersion.
