"Born in 1941, Eileen Tumulty is raised by Irish immigrant parents in Woodside, Queens, in an apartment where the mood swings between heartbreak and hilarity, depending on whether guests are over and how much alcohol has been consumed. Eileen meets Ed Leary, a scientist who is nothing like the men she grew up with, and thinks she's found the perfect partner to deliver her to the cosmopolitan world she longs to inhabit. They marry, and Eileen quickly discovers Ed doesn't aspire to the same, ever bigger, stakes in the American Dream"--Back cover. 20150127. Irish Americans Fiction.
