Reseña del libro "The Stolen Child (en Inglés)"
The Stolen Child is the second and final book in the Wild Mountain duology. Part I, Back to the Garden, is also available through Ingram Spark.In The Stolen Child, we'll find a world unrecognizable to those of us in living in the early to mid-21st century. Fran and Leo's youngest child, Fae, goes missing after extreme wildfires force the family off their Idaho mountain. Fae's story is told in short interludes, which contrast with the first person narratives written by the adults around her, as her life is upended and she ends up in Schull, Ireland, the home of the "last wolf in Ireland." As her family sails through new waters in Canada, and then across the Atlantic, to find her, a romance grows between Fae's older brother Alejandro and his best friend Kristy. Yet, the backdrop to the blossoming relationship is a journey to find the missing child, sinister and full of mystery, speculative about an even more drastically climate-changed time than the one we're experiencing now and one in which false narratives and dangerous ideologies continue to flourish.The Stolen Child is inspired by WB Yeats' poem of the same name, and by Fae's mother Fran's childhood interest in Irish mythology. Fae's story reflects the literal stolen child. The story also follows her family and friends as they go to the ends of the world-the waters and the wild-in their search for her, so the story also recognizes the figurative trappings of the modern world.
