摘要

Chapter 1, “Second-Class Citizens,” provides a portrait of Molloy’s family, especially her parents’ background, her life as the oldest female child with nine siblings, the effect of the Catholic Church on her family and community during Northern Ireland’s self-proclaimed era of “Protestant State for a Protestant People,” her father’s four-year internment during Operation Harvest in the late 1950s–early 1960s, and Molloy’s later reminiscences about how her own lack of a formal education impacted her life in an interview for Radio Ulster less than a year before her death.
