<p>This book talks about a life among the Boston Irish, the New York Irish and the Irish Irish. Sheila Sullivan is an American journalist who has worked for The Irish Times for seventeen years. She was born in 1956 in Chelsea, the first city north of Boston, and after college worked as a reporter on the New York Daily News reporter and a producer for CNN. She moved to Dublin in 1986 and to Achill Island, County Mayo, in 1998. Follow the Moon: An American in Ireland is a highly original work, an engaging and beautifully crafted account of an unusual life among the Boston Irish, the New York Irish and the Irish Irish. It is the story of three moves - from Boston to New York, from New York to Dublin, and from Dublin to Achill - each one difficult and life-enhancing. Part memoir and part social and literary history, Follow the Moon contains a close portrait of legendary New York newspaperman Jimmy Breslin, along with cameos of writers Tom Mac Intyre, Jay McInerny and Dominick Dunne. There is a behind-the-scenes look at the coverage of the retrial of Claus von Bulow, the second televised trial in US history, with Sheila as its producer in the field. Moriarty about modern Ireland and a description of Heinrich Boll's time in Achill. At its heart is the story of her meeting with New Zealand-born composer Brent Parker, who later became her husband. 'Sheila Sullivan's new book is delightful and written in sentences that carry you along in the finest of style' - Jimmy Breslin, Pulitzer prize-winning journalist and author.</p>
