Description

Individual lives and history collide.

Belfast, Northern Ireland - in the 1960's a place of laughter, community and youthful dreams. But by the 1970's Belfast's working class streets had become war zones, forcing young fellas like Tommy Stewart to grow up too fast and choose between resistance or submission.

Tommy is a catholic teenager living in a protestant part of Belfast. His life is upended when the vibrant street of his birth is dragged down into a violent sectarian nightmare. They called it 'The Troubles'.

Some choose to get involved, others have no choice.

Childhood friends become enemies and families are uprooted.

Tommy decides to take matters into his own hands. But there are consequences - there are always consequences - and the boy becomes a man long before his time. He talks to us from the prison camp known as 'Long Kesh' where he tries to make sense of what has happened to him, his street and his people.

Read Tommy's gripping and heartbreaking account of a life shaped by 1970's Belfast. Experience the choices, the losses and the hope that refuses to be extinguished - the dream of working class unity. Grab your copy today and step into a world where history is personal and the past is never far behind.
