Irish Fever

Leaving her loving family behind, seventeen-year-old Oonagh seeks to escape the potato famine in 19th century Ireland and make a better life for herself in England. However, life in the industrialised mill town of North West England was far removed from the emerald-green fields of her homeland. Social unrest and squalid housing conditions along with religious intolerance lead to a raging street battle between the Irish immigrants and the English. The story follows a pregnant Oonagh's struggles and sufferings in the overcrowded disease-ridden north west town, until she overcomes prejudice and hardship and finally finds friendship and true love.

Lasand in urma familia iubitoare, Oonagh, in varsta de saptesprezece ani, cauta sa scape de foametea de cartofi din Irlanda secolului al XIX-lea si sa-si faca o viata mai buna in Anglia. Cu toate acestea, viata din orasul industrializat din nord-vestul Angliei era departe de campurile verde smarald ale patriei sale.
