Happy St.Patricks Day everyone!! Today I am featuring The Hollow Ground by Natalie S. Harnett and it is about an Irish American family living and working in Pennsylvania. A coming of age, historical and American tragedy taking place in the 1960's. Thomas Dunne Books: St. Martin's Press Publication date: May 13, 2014 "THE BEST NOVEL OF 2014."~PROVIDENCE JOURNAL #1 AUDIBLE BEST SELLER AMAZON BEST SELLER GOODREADS BOOK GROUP WORTHY TITLE LIBRARY JOURNAL's "Debuts with Buzz" Selection SAN DIEGO MAGAZINE's '5 Books to Read This Month' NYC Irish Arts Center 2015 Book Day Pick The Hollow Ground is inspired by the coal mines fires that took place in Centralia and Carbondale, PA in the 1960s, and it has a strong Irish American influence as well. Not only is the novel about an Irish American family but it also touches on the history of Irish Americans in the country, including the notorious Molly Maguires. The Book Set amongst the deadly coal mine fires of 1960s Pennsylvania, The Hollow Ground is an extraordinary debut that will "grab you by the brisket and not let go." (Gary Shteyngart) "We walk on fire or air, so Daddy liked to say. Basement floors too hot to touch. Steaming green lawns in the dead of winter. Sinkholes, quick and sudden, plunging open at your feet." The underground mine fires ravaging Pennsylvania coal country have forced Brigid Howley and her family to seek refuge with her estranged grandparents, the formidable Gram and the Black Lung stricken Gramp. Tragedy is no stranger to the Howleys, a proud Irish-American clan who takes strange pleasure in the "curse" laid upon them generations earlier by a priest who ran afoul of the Molly Maguires. The weight of this legacy rests heavily on a new generation, when Brigid, already struggling to keep her family together, makes a grisly discovery in a long-abandoned bootleg mine shaft. In the aftermath, decades' old secrets threaten to prove just as dangerous to the Howleys as the burning, hollow ground beneath their feet. Inspired by real-life events in now-infamous Centralia and the equally devastated town of Carbondale, The Hollow Ground is an extraordinary debut with an atmospheric, voice-driven narrative and an indelible sense of place. Not since To Kill a Mockingbird has a young character been so heartbreakingly captivating. A "powerful story of love and survival" (Pulitzer Prize finalist David Gates), Harnett's novel is a must-read for lovers of literary fiction. Praise for the Book An extraordinary debut with an atmospheric, voice-driven narrative and an indelible sense of place. Lovers of literary fiction will find in Harnett’s young, determined protagonist a character as heartbreakingly captivating as Scout Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird. “The Hollow Ground is a coming-of-age novel, a murder mystery, a family saga, and an American tragedy of an environmentally and economically devastated region. But most of all, it’s a painful and powerful story of love and survival.” —David Gates, Pulitzer Prize finalist "A grand achievement, a story fierce in its honesty about family love and betrayal.” --Maureen Howard, National Book Critics Circle Award winner "Brigid Howley is as unforgettable as Francie in “A Tree Grows in Brooklyn,” and hands down this is the best novel of 2014."~PROVIDENCE JOURNAL ". . .the flap copy. . . compare[s] the novel’s child narrator, Brigid Howley, to Scout Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird, and I have to say, Harnett earns the comparison. . . the most rounded, complete child narrator I’ve read in years."~novelhistorian.com “The Hollow Ground recalls nothing so much as the dark and powerful dramas of Eugene O’Neill. . . ." —Rebecca Goldstein, Whiting Writer’s Award winner "Natalie S. Harnett in The Hollow Ground has captured the essence of the people, history and culture of Pennsylvania's Anthracite Region, and how too often the small towns here, most notably the real-life Centralia, faced existential threats from coal mine fires that seemed to burn forever." --David DeKok, author of Fire Underground: The Ongoing Tragedy of the Centralia Mine Fire The Author Natalie S. Harnett has an MFA from Columbia and has been awarded an Edward Albee Fellowship, a Summer Literary Seminars Fellowship, and a Vermont Studio Center Writer’s Grant.

Actor says he 'can't wait to bring this complex, funny and dangerous character to life'
The Cemetery of the Skull. The mouth is grotesquely agape in a centuries-long silent scream, resting on a pillow of crossed femur bones.
Nothing is ever as it seems in Sleepy Hollow… Sleepy Hollow is crumbling. To protect the supernatural town from the mundane world, each year a resident is sacrificed to The Dullahan, the Headless Horseman that protects the veil around the Hollow. Nineteen-year-old Katrina van Tassel knows she’s a disappointment to her parents, for more reasons than one. But as the only daughter of the most prominent family in Sleepy Hollow, she never imagined that she would be chosen as the next sacrifice. Or that in her attempt to escape, she would instead come face to face with the Horseman himself. But the harbinger of death isn’t who they said he was, and Katrina begins to question everything she has ever been told. Evil forces far more dangerous than the mysterious Horseman are at work in the Hollow, and the Horseman is determined to protect Sleepy Hollow. Katrina is tempted to take the Horseman’s offer of assistance in fleeing Sleepy Hollow, rather than staying to fight by his side to save the town. Until he reveals she’s the only one with the power to stop the evil being summoned… A standalone gothic fantasy, Hollowed will pull you into the reimagined world of Sleepy Hollow and thrust you into a mysterious town filled with deadly magic, cunning betrayals, and secrets you never saw coming. Cross the bridge into the Hollow and pick up your next dark fantasy read.
