| Summary | "Sandy" by Alice Caldwell Hegan Rice is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story follows the life of a young boy named Sandy Kilday, an Irish immigrant, as he navigates his journey from poverty and hardship to seeking a new life in America. A central theme of the book revolves around Sandy's aspirations, struggles with identity, and the impact of kindness and love as he encounters various challenges along the way. The beginning of "Sandy" introduces us to the protagonist, Sandy Kilday, who is contemplating his life while lying on a quay, observing the bustling port where he dreams of adventure. Struggling with memories of his past in Ireland, he decides to stow away on a ship bound for America, feeling determined to pave a new path for himself. As Sandy covertly settles into a life-boat on the ship, he reflects on his experiences and dreams, foreshadowing his spirited and ambitious nature that endears him to others. Upon setting sail, he encounters moments of joy and vulnerability, including a budding fascination with love, marking the start of his transformative journey across the Atlantic.
