Everything seemed right in place for her to begin a new life with a man she supposedly trusted and wanted to be with. The interactive orals gave me a better understanding of how much of an impact the ’Irish Diaspora’‚ ’Roman Catholicism’‚ the ’Role of Women in Ireland’ and ’Ireland in the New World’ contributed to her paralysis
