When James Ward, a high- school freshman living in Queens, meets Cornelia Parsons he gains entry into a very old, very secretive, and to him very attractive world. Cornelia and her enigmatic guardian Miss Widdershins belong to a confederation of travelers, perpetual exiles who left Ireland and Scotland centuries ago and who now recognize no law but their own. They are facing a crisis brought on by a malignant deserter. And now Cornelia expects her new friend James to take a hand. Fans of John Crowley's \u003cem\u003eLittle, Big\u003c\/em\u003e will be fans of this subtle, mysterious novel about two teens coming of age in a too-modern age. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The story is highly engaging, with a varied array of nostalgic touches from different countries and periods...The various players are quietly but richly delineated, and their conversations ring true; James and Cornelia's relationship is particularly strong. Indeed, the plot often takes a back seat to character development and exploration of the travelers' secret world. This is a welcome choice, however, as Gallagher often handles it deftly.--\u003cem\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Terence Gallagher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1604891912\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781604891911\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Livingston Press at the University of West Al\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 206\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Terence Gallagher","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44124986245375,"sku":"9781604891911","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_39174152-95a8-4044-aa85-fcce7ad8d843.jpg?v=1687439966","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lowlands-terence-gallagher-9781604891911","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
