The Four Streets by Nadine Dorries

4.0

A heart-wrenching story about a group of Irish immigrants living in Liverpool, particularly those closest to Jerry, a handsome dock worker who, along with his wife, is adored by everyone in the town. It was lovely to read a story in which poor people lived happy lives and there was no comparison between rich and poor - no slaves and masters, just slaves and slaves. It was a beautifully-written story, and I also loved how it followed the children as they grew up, without the writing feeling disjointed.
