This is a haunting account of the hunger strikes of 1980 -81 and their lingering effects on the troubled people of Northern Ireland.
Perhaps the most remarkable aspects of the 1980-81 hunger strikes in Northern Ireland by IRA prisoners in the H Block Prison was the zeal of the 10 men who starved to death.
Anyone who wants to understand the essence of the Troubles will have cause to beĀ grateful for this book.
