Anglo-Irish Family Saga & Historical Women’s Fiction
The women who held everything together.
Family, friendship and one Irish woman’s journey from 1960s Cork to 1990s London, told with warmth and dry Irish humour.
Breda Stewart writes Anglo-Irish family sagas about women, families and the lives they build.
Her stories cross generations, countries and changing times, following the choices people make and the consequences that sometimes don’t become apparent until years later.
There is love and loss, marriage and motherhood, work and worry, friendship and family feuds.
One woman. Three names. Three decades.
Maureen’s story begins in 1960s Cork and follows her across the Irish Sea and through the next thirty years of her life.
The Miss Driscoll trilogy begins with Maureen as a young woman, leaving Cork and making a new life in England.
The Mrs Pearce trilogy follows her through the 1970s and 1980s, as marriage, motherhood, loss and family reshape the life she thought she was building.
The Maureen, Herself trilogy takes her into the 1990s and the next stage of her life.
Nine novels, one free prequel and one woman’s story.
Three names for one woman. A maiden name, a married name and finally her own.
