Recent release "The Reluctant Immigrant: A Memoir" from Page Publishing author Mary Neville is both historic and entertaining; this work delves into the ideas of culture, change, acceptance and fate.
New York, NY, June 30, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Mary Neville, a devoted historian, writer and author, has published her new work “The Reluctant Immigrant: A Memoir”: a gripping and potent journey into the life of an immigrant in the historic United States.
Published by New York City-based Page Publishing, Mary Neville’s profound story describes the main character’s challenging adjustment and gradual, sincere acceptance and respect for America.
“The Reluctant Immigrant” was written to help readers understand what it can really feel like to be an immigrant in a strange new country, far away from home. Many immigrants seeking the opportunity of a better life or a safer life arrive on American shores not able to speak the English/American language. The immigrant in this story, however, was English, and had not expected to ever leave her homeland, an event which led to her life changing dramatically. Life in London, her birth city and where she was brought up, was exciting, beautiful, and full of the richness of its history and culture. During the sixties word went out from large American Corporations looking to employ highly qualified scientists, it was called the ‘Brain Drain’ and her husband qualified. Perplexed and heavy-hearted she forced herself through the process of dismantling her London home and tearing her children away from sad, aging relatives and friends. It was never an adventure, but a duty. Gradually the homesickness of the early years began to subside, but feeling dismally equipped to embrace this unwanted adventure she decided that some serious history lessons were necessary. Piecing together the historical underpinnings of each new state, city and town where she made a home naturally brought frequent connections to her own homeland and provided the link and the bridge that brought her curiosity and appreciation of both places into play, leading to exciting success.
Readers who wish to experience this inspiring work can purchase “The Reluctant Immigrant: A Memoir” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play or Barnes and Noble.
