Grangecolman (1912) is a historical fiction novel written by Edward Martyn. The story is set in Ireland during the early 20th century and follows the lives of the wealthy Colman family, who reside in the grand estate of Grangecolman. The novel is divided into three parts, each focusing on a different member of the Colman family. The first part of the novel centers around the patriarch of the family, John Colman, who is a prominent member of Irish society and a staunch supporter of Irish Home Rule. However, his views are not shared by all members of his family, and tensions begin to rise as political and personal differences come to light. The second part of the novel follows John’s daughter, Eileen, who falls in love with a young Irish nationalist named Michael O’Flanagan. Their romance is complicated by the political turmoil of the time, as well as the disapproval of Eileen’s father. The final part of the novel focuses on John’s son, Harry, who is a soldier fighting in World War I. Through his experiences on the battlefield, Harry begins to question the values and beliefs that he was raised with, leading to a dramatic shift in his worldview. Overall, Grangecolman (1912) is a sweeping family saga that explores themes of politics, love, and identity in the context of early 20th century Ireland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
