I love a good story and an uplifting ending!

This book checks off every box on my list of elements for a good read!

A wonderful and deep book.

I thought this might be a light hearted book. In some ways it was while in others it was very deep. The main character was endearing and made you hope for the best for him. All of the characters, from the most loving to the ones you absolutely hated, were extremely well written. The story line had twists and turns. Can't say it turned out the way I had hoped, yet I completely enjoyed this book. Well narrated as well. While reading, know that the atrocities being presented happened all the way up until 1991; could still be happening. Evil presents itself where it can hide and take advantage of the innocent. As a Catholic, I was brought up that God is loving and it is unacceptable to allow evil to continue; don't say you are doing something in the name of God unless it is for a positive and loving reason.

Wonderful

McKenna wove such a beautiful tale of laughter, sadness, dispare and hope. I have a new author whose books I'll cherish.

Beautiful story

The Misremembered Man is a heartbreakingly beautiful story about the horrors inflicted on orphaned children in Ireland. I was engaged in the story from the first page through the last. I'd highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to learn about this dark period in Irish history.

A joy to listen to!

What a beautifully written story full of every emotion there is! You will laugh, cry, and ultimately not be able to stop thinking about this richly woven story full of unique characters.
