The Unremembered by Mike Smears
Mairead Kelly, only seventeen, barefoot, starving and alone, flees the unimaginable horror of the Irish Famine, only to find disease and desperate squalor in nineteenth century industrial Liverpool. Against all odds, and amid a multitude of setbacks, she rises above the poverty and death, marries, and achieves a brief troubled happiness. But what is the dark tragic secret she is harbouring? Mairead’s struggle to access education for her children backfires when her literate daughter embarks on a romance with the charming son of a despised, rich, English family. Are the English so uncaring after all? As the tensions rise and the two families clash will Mairead’s tragic secret finally be revealed?
Mike Smears was born in 1947 and grew up in a poor area of Liverpool. He graduated in English Literature from Kent University in 1969, and subsequently worked at the University in Southampton, where he now lives. He is married with four children and (so far) eight grandchildren. The Unremembered is Mike’s debut novel with Troubador Publishing.
