What Is the Most Moving Thing About the Famine?

There's one little tiny memorial in the west of Ireland in County Mayo and it's just a little cross. It marks this walk that people did from this small village called Lewisburg where they walked 12 miles to meet the porn or guardians. These were the people who made decisions about whether people would get extra relief or food. When they got there they were told they had to wait outside while the porn or guardian ate their lunch which is just to me the cruelty of that to starving people. I wanted there to be levity in the book and humour and occasionally jokes.
