ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“Brooklyn” by Colm Tóibín tells the story of Eilis Lacey, a young Irish woman who emigrates to Brooklyn in the 1950s in search of better opportunities. Separated from her family, Eilis navigates the challenges of adapting to a new country, a new job, and unfamiliar cultural norms. As she builds a new life, she faces emotional conflicts between her loyalty to her family in Ireland and the growing love for her life in Brooklyn. The novel explores themes of immigration, identity, self-discovery, and the sacrifices that shape one’s future. It examines the tension between duty and personal desires.
