Book review: Familial bonds tested in harsh locale
Mentioned just a few times in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L Frank Baum, Dorothy's aunt, Emily Gale, is brought to life in this engrossing historical novel. She's one of three sisters whose family emigrated from Ireland to the US. Her heritage is very important to her, she plays the fiddle and sings Irish songs. As young women, Annie and Emily live together in Chicago — but a distance starts to develop when Annie marries John Gale, 'a man of capitalism and industry', and that strained relationship gets worse. Emily falls in love with John's cousin, who couldn't be more different — 'a man of community and nature'. She has always been attracted to the idea of moving to the prairies, influenced by her mother's fascination with a pamphlet written by the Irish priest Reverend Thomas Ambrose Butler entitled The State of Kansas and Irish Immigration. The first time she meets Henry, he talks about his plans to farm there and, while partly frightened at the thought of heading off into the unknown, she's also excited and prepared to face challenges. When she joins husband Henry in Kansas her immediate reaction is: 'The sense of isolation was unfamiliar and daunting, but it was thrilling.' Emily throws herself into the traditional lifestyle and the surroundings are idyllic when there is sufficient rain, but they are soon faced with the harsh reality of drought. When Emily receives news of the tragic death of Annie and her husband John, and has to make the trip to Chicago to collect her orphaned niece Dorothy, she is faced with another challenge. Will she succeed as a surrogate mother? During the 1920s, the American government encouraged people to buy plots and work the land. However, they used ill-informed farming practices including removing topsoil, so the 'unstoppable power of nature' created an unsustainable environment. Will we ever learn? Gaynor's descriptions of the power of nature and its effect on human health during the Dust Bowl years are truly frightening. 'Animals were falling sick and dying from dust fever, and prairie folk were dying from dust pneumonia caused by a layer of dust settling deep in their lungs … There was no colour there, no joy…' Into this depressing world arrives Adelaide Watson, an aviator, a colourful character who gives them hope by promising to bring them a rainmaker. Though fictional, she is a reminder of Amelia Earhart. There are wonderful descriptions of the freedom of flight. The author weaves historic people and events into her narrative as well as references to the original story and its characters. Integral are the silver shoes Dorothy inherits from her mother, which were changed to the famous red slippers in the film as they stood out better on the Yellow Brick Road. Emily is a well-rounded and likeable character, whose inner struggles and triumphs are eloquently revealed in her journal entries. The novel explores relationships between sisters, wives and husbands, and the real meaning of motherhood, as well as the importance of home. You do not need to have read the L Frank Baum novel or seen the film to enjoy this novel. It's moving and uplifting, and you will also learn a lot about the 1920s and 1930s in the US. Highly recommended.

Lucas Paqueta ‘set to be CLEARED of betting charges as FA faced with paying West Ham star's £1MILLION legal fees'
LUCAS PAQUETA is set to be cleared of spot-fixing charges, according to reports. The West Ham star has played for two years while allegations of being deliberately yellow carded were hanging over his head. Advertisement 2 Lucas Paqueta is set to be cleared of spot-fixing charges Credit: Getty 2 Paqueta was accused of being deliberately carded on four occasions Credit: PA It was alleged that Paqueta picked up bookings on four separate occasions between November 2022 to August 2023 amid suspicious betting patterns being flagged. A guilty verdict could have seen the 27-year-old slapped with a lifetime ban from football. But reports from The FA are set to confirm their decision early next week. Advertisement West Ham and Paqueta are said to be furious over how long it has taken to reach a verdict. The FA could now face having to cover the cost of the midfielder's legal fees, which is in the region of £1million. Shortly before the investigation became public, Manchester City had agreed an £85million deal to sign the former Lyon man from West Ham. But that move collapsed once City became aware of the allegations. Advertisement Most read in Football An investigation was launched after suspicions betting patterns were identified originating from Paqueta Island in Brazil, where the player was born. Bets ranging from just £7 to £400 were placed on the four separate cards, in matches against Leicester, Aston Villa, Leeds and Bournemouth. A total of £100,000 in winnings came from bets placed on the four bookings. West Ham's then shirt sponsor, Betway, as well as a number of other high-profile bookmakers, raised concerns after their automatic systems which monitor suspicious betting were triggered. Advertisement After the nine-month FA probe, Paqueta was charged in May last year but did not face a hearing until March 2025, which finished following the end of the Premier League season. During the hearing, evidence was heard from former West Ham boss David Moyes. Paqueta's form has nosedived during the process, with the playmaker in tears on the pitch following a booking in a West Ham game versus Tottenham in May. Following that match, Paqeuta's wife released an emotional statement saying the family had been living through a "nightmare" for two years. Advertisement Sources close to the player have revealed that the allegations have had a serious impact on Paqueta's mental well-being. Read more on the Irish Sun THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY..
