Claire Kilroy takes readers deep inside the early days of motherhood. Exploring the clash of fierce love with a seismic shift in identity, Kilroy conjures the raw, tumultuous emotions of a new mother, as her marriage strains and she struggles with questions of equality, autonomy, and creativity. Soldier Sailor is a tale of boundless love and relentless battle, a bedtime story to a son, Sailor, recounting their early years together. Spending her days in baby groups, playgrounds, and supermarkets, Soldier doesn’t know who she is anymore. She hardly sees her husband, who has taken to working late most nights. A chance encounter with a former colleague feels like a lifeline to the person she used to be but can hardly remember. Tender and harrowing, Kilroy’s modern masterpiece portrays parenthood in all its agony and ardent joy. Claire Kilroy is the author of five novels including Soldier Sailor, All Summer, Tenderwire, and The Devil I Know. She was awarded the Rooney Prize in 2004 and has been shortlisted for many other prizes, including the Irish Novel of the Year and the Kerry Group Irish Fiction Award. She studied at Trinity College and lives in Dublin. Conor Creaney, Clinical Associate Professor in the Expository Writing Program, has written on novelistic form and on contemporary Irish poetry. He is Director of NYU’s Study Abroad program at Trinity College Dublin.

Came here on September 19, 2017.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art is one of the most important museums in the world. With the influence of American imperialism, it has collected cultural relics and artworks from various civilizations around the world through plunder. Most of these exhibits are representative cultural relics of various civilizations. I believe that every visitor will feel mixed emotions here.

The entire museum is classified according to different civilizations on different continents. Because everyone knows the origin of the collections, the exhibition is very simple and crude, that is, putting the things of a civilization in one place, without any good narrative, it is completely a &quot;trophy&quot; display.

There are many collections here. If you want to see them carefully, you need to spend one or two days. The museum is next to Central Park, and the two places can also be arranged to visit in one day, half a day in the park and half a day in the museum.

The representative of New York, USA, has two routes to take. We went up by ferry, and there is also a speedboat, but this is the most cost-effective. We went there at 2 pm, and there were not many people, so it was just right to come back. If you go in the morning, there are more tour groups and the queue will be very long.

The first day of the New Year is a tourist, but compared to the domestic people, the queue time is reasonable. . . The roof is too windy, the 80th floor is indoor, the photo has reflection, you can go up to the 86th floor to take pictures outside, overlooking the whole of New York.
