WILLOW TREE OF TULLAMAINE

The Willow Tree of Tullamaine tells the story of Caitlin Donovan, a sixteen-year old, Irish tenant farmer's daughter. Her only ambition is to marry Dillon Banion and raise a family with him in the village, but she becomes enmeshed in the tangle of Anglo and Celt, Protestant and Catholic, faerie and mortal that is Ireland. She is forced onto a path not of her choosing.

The novel explores the moral dilemmas that occur in a politically charged atmosphere, dilemmas no less relevant today than they were in 1892 Ireland. It is also a story about the persistence of the human impulse to love.

Willow is the first of three novels that follow Caitlin from 1892 through May 1915.
