Product Description
A uniquely crafted memoir of the author's early childhood (1967-1972) as the third oldest in a working-class Catholic family in Derry, Ireland. Written with the authentic voice of a child, this snapshot of his young life portrays a family protecting itself from conflict, with CS gas coming in through the door and tracer bullets flying past the windows. Described as a treasure', the book draws the reader into a child's world, his innocent view of the harsh reality of life and the horrifying events unfolding around him. The book is both humorous and moving as it paints a picture of a lost world of children running wild in play, unsupervised or worried over by adults.
