Oprah’s book club: Long Island by Colm TóiBín

Oprah joined the party this month with a sequel to the story of Eilis Lacey, the complex and enigmatic heroine of Brooklyn, Tóibín’s most popular work, twenty years later.

It’s a risky move, picking a sequal to a 20 year old book, I’m torn between skipping this one or going all in and reading the first book and then this one.

It is the spring of 1976 and Eilis, now in her forties with two teenage children, has no one to rely on in this still-new country. Though her ties to Ireland remain stronger than those that hold her to her new land and home, she has not returned in decades.
