Inhaltsangabe

In the early 1900’s, a Manx family of miners subsists on a small-hold farm; their lives are stable, steeped in routines, love and faery lore, but they are on the verge of ruin. The young family must leave forever, in search of a new life. How will a mother of six, Euphemia, and her eldest son, Henry, make a family home in a new world? William’s younger brother, Thomas, posts their bond for emigration to Michigan. Euphemia suspects her first lover has ulterior motives and that he will destroy her. Henry, almost a man, longs to remain and save their land. No matter. They must go. Too late, they discover they are trapped. Euphemia and Henry together and separately, must struggle to surmount betrayal, lies, abuse and heartbreak. On a three-decade journey from Isle of Man to Saskatchewan, via Michigan and Manitoulin Island, we are immersed in this moving saga of Euphemia and Henry’s fight for independence. A sweeping novel about what endures in an unfamiliar place. Can forgiveness restore love and bring hope? Is there time to heal the past and build a future?

Time Enough is an epic family saga that explores the power of love, courage and what it means to be home. Meticulously researched and exquisitely rendered, Mayne stakes her claim as a historical fiction writer-to-watch. A masterful achievement.
Ali Bryan, author of Coq

Time Enough is a blessing to all who read it…What a novel! What a voice! WOW!
Richard Van Camp, author of The Moon of Letting Go
