Eilis is granted an opportunity to migrate to the United States. When Eilis first arrives in America, she’s unspeakably homesick but focuses on her job at a department store called Bartocci’s, where she hopes to someday work in the accounting office. To help her stay busy, Father Flood gets her into bookkeeping and corporate law classes at Brooklyn College, and she soon begins to enjoy living in Brooklyn, even if her landlady, Mrs. Kehoe is often overbearing. Before long, she meets an Italian man named Tony and begins to see him each week. Their relationship develops slowly but surely, and it becomes clear to her that Tony wants to get married. Despite her relative contentment, though, her life changes drastically one day when she learns that Rose has died in her sleep, forcing her to return to Ireland to visit her mother. Before she leaves, she secretly marries Tony, who’s afraid she won’t otherwise come back. Upon reaching Ireland, Eilis becomes used to living at home once again and delays her return to Brooklyn. She even begins a relationship with a young man named Jim Farrell, though she eventually abandons him when Miss Kelly discovers her marriage to Tony, at which point she finally returns to America.]]> 2021-02-02 13:28:56 UTC https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1153498935 andrayatighe https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1153506880 A young Italian man who lives with his family in Brooklyn, Tony is Eilis’s first real love. Because he likes Irish women, he attends the dance that Father Flood hosts at the church, where he initially lays eyes on Eilis, though he doesn’t approach her at first. Instead, he waits until two weeks later, when he sees her again and asks her to dance. Assuming that he’s Irish, she accepts, eager to have an excuse to stop sitting awkwardly with Dolores. They continue to dance throughout the night, and Tony tells her that he looked for her the previous week and noticed she wasn’t there. When the night is over, he walks her home and then invites her to dinner before the following week’s dance. Happy to have someone to go with who doesn’t live in Mrs. Kehoe’s house, Eilis accepts, and thus begins their relationship. Eventually, she learns that he is Italian, but this doesn’t bother her, though she does keep the information from Mrs. Kehoe. She also fails to mention Tony’s existence to her mother when she writes letters home, though she privately tells Rose about him, reluctantly informing her that Tony is a plumber. Unlike Eilis, Tony is open and honest about his feelings, which is why he has no trouble expressing his love for her long before she’s ready to tell him how she feels about him. Similarly, he speaks unreservedly about how he wants to have children with her in the future, eagerly planning their lives. Eventually, he invites her to the small two-room apartment in which he lives with his parents and three brothers, easily incorporating her into his everyday life. When he learns that she needs to visit Ireland in the aftermath of Rose’s death, he worries that she won’t return to him, so he pleads with her to marry him. Hesitantly, she agrees, and they secretly get married before she leaves. Despite this commitment, Eilis cheats on Tony with Jim Farrell while she’s in Ireland, though she eventually returns to Brooklyn to resume her life with him.]]> 2021-02-02 13:30:41 UTC https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1153506880 andrayatighe https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1153532405 Please watch this before Class!]]> 2021-02-02 13:36:14 UTC https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1153532405 andrayatighe https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1153558760 2021-02-02 13:41:41 UTC https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1153558760 andrayatighe https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1153561470 Please Fill in below: ]]> 2021-02-02 13:42:13 UTC https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1153561470 andrayatighe https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1153563236 Tell me what you've learned today:]]> 2021-02-02 13:42:34 UTC https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1153563236 andrayatighe https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1155106374 2021-02-02 17:58:10 UTC https://padlet.com/andrayatighe/ujdrihot3ucdl02p/wish/1155106374
