Martin Doyle, Books Editor of The Irish Times, offers a personal, intimate history of the Troubles seen through the microcosm of a single rural parish, his own, part of both the Linen Triangle–heartland of the North's defining industry–and the Murder Triangle–the Badlands roamed by the Glenanne gang of security forces colluding with loyalist paramilarites. He lifts the veil of silence drawn over the horrors of the past, recording in heartrending detail the terrible toll the conflict took–more than 20 violent deaths in a few square miles–and the long tail of trauma it has left behind.

The people
Revisado: 11-28-23
This is the full unglorified account of life as it was in Northern Ireland. It is unbelievable, heart wrenching, and yet the survivors and their families somehow have dignity, humor & their love shines through.
I could only listen for short periods of time… on occasion having to stop & gather myself before carrying on with my day. This book is indeed haunting… full of facts… cold hard facts…& such emotion. I cried, I laughed and I remembered. I lived in Banbridge in this time period, attended Banbridge Academy but was so fortunate never to have been directly impacted by the violence.
There was, though, the ever present, pervasive undertone of unease that was our normality & if I think about it too much, even after 20 years of living in Hawaii…. it’s still there… large as ever.
I don’t want to ask my older 2 kids if they feel the same, don’t want to trigger these feelings in them & am so grateful that my younger daughter & grandkids haven’t had to go through all that.

In her memoir, a work of deep reflection and mesmerizing storytelling, Michelle Obama invites listeners into her world, chronicling the experiences that have shaped her - from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work to her time spent at the world's most famous address. With unerring honesty and lively wit, she describes her triumphs and her disappointments, both public and private, telling her full story as she has lived it - in her own words and on her own terms.

"Do you believe in ghosts?" Annette just sort of blurted out. Sara and Seth both looked up at their new friend with surprise. "Well," Sara stalled, "I guess I do." She remembered the night Solomon had visited her in her bedroom after her brother and his friend had shot him, but she hadn't really thought about him being a ghost that night; she'd just been so glad to see her beloved feathered friend.
