What is recorded here
Margaret Wolfe Hungerford is a birthplace in Rosscarbery, County Cork, Ireland. Perhaps she arrived on April 27, 1855, breathing in salt air that later filled her novels with life. Maybe the small town still holds the shape of her childhood, waiting for readers who recognize its voice.
