Pretty good 3-way story about some Irish people in America at different time periods that ends up interrelated. I could see this as a movie. Nice art too. A little too adult in spots for young people though. ( ) Weaving three generations of storyline together, _Gone to Amerikay_ showcases the lives of Irish immigrants in New York City. Beautifully illustrated, it is a funky mash-up of ghost story, history lesson and romance. Personally, I would have liked a glossary of Gaelic words, and the use of historical manuscript/newspaper clippings to strengthen the historic aspects and shed light on the named historic figures. However, this is a work of fiction, so one can only expect so much. Recommended for older readers nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"This sweeping, century-spanning graphic novel explores the vivid history of Irish émigrés to New York City via three intertwined tales, from a penniless woman raising a daughter alone in the Five Points slum of 1870, to a struggling young artist drawn to the nascent counterculture of 1960, the year America elected its first Irish-Catholic president."--Publisher's website.
