“The heart and the soul, so beloved of God, are both filthied up by residence here, how can we avoid it? . . . I suppose therefore God is the connoisseur of filthied hearts and souls, and can see the old, first pattern in them, and cherish them for that.”
from The Secret Scripture by Sebastian Barry

About Shanna
I'm working on a Master's Degree in English with a focus on Irish Culture and Literature at Boston College. I love Jesus, horses, dogs, reading, children's and young adult literature, comic books (I'm a Marvel girl), mythology (esp. Classical, Norse and Irish), pretty much anything Irish, history, movies, photography, travel, research, writing, good food, and living adventurously.
