thefairophelia 's review for:

Castle Rackrent by Maria Edgeworth
4.0
mysterious fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Appealing to a non-Irish audience gets you everywhere and nowhere, and makes this a rather curious account of “true” Irishness… though in a way that ultimately feels as if it is only faithful to the English reader and not the Irish peoples being depicted
