Synopsis
Continuing his Irish Century series, Llywelyn tell the story of Ireland from 1950-1972 as seen through the eyes of young photographer Barry Halloran, son and grandson of Irish revolutionaries, who finds himself in the middle of the most horrific event of all: Bloody Sunday in Derry, 1972., The Irish Century series is the story of the Irish people's epic struggle for independence through the tumultuous course of the 20th century. Morgan Llywelyn's magisterial multi-novel chronicle of that story began with 1916 , which was followed by 1921 and 1949 . It now continues with 1972, which covers the events and social changes of the mid-century in Ireland through the story of the coming-of-age of Barry Halloran, son of Ursula Halloran (the heroine of 1949 ). Barry moves from patriotic involvement in the IRA, to an aversion to explosives and guns and a career as a photographer, to a final moment of radicalization in the face of the horrifying injustices in Northern Ireland that crystalized on Bloody Sunday in Derry in 1972. A chronicle of life in Ireland between 1950 and 1972, through Barry's journey the novel gives a clear understanding of social changes, pressure points, and vivid moments of historical importance. Clear parallels are drawn to the American civil rights movements of the 1960s, which in part motivated the patriotic and oppressed Irish Catholics. At the same time, there is the continuation of the family saga that links all the volumes of this series, and a passionate romance for Barry. Morgan Llywelyn is at her storytelling best in 1972 . The Irish Century Novels 1916: A Novel of the Irish Rebellion 1921: The Great Novel of the Irish Civil War 1949: A Novel of the Irish Free State 1972: A Novel of Ireland's Unfinished Revolution 1999: A Novel of the Celtic Tiger and the Search for Peace

    Used book as described, packed well for shipping and shipped promptly. Seller went the absolute distance in describing this used book. I particularly wanted this edition. From the photos and description of this item for sale, I was certain I would receive exactly what I was expecting and paid for. If I could give more than 5 Stars I would. Definitely would buy from this Seller again.

    The Sunbeam mixer arrived today. You did such a great packing job that everything arrived safe and sound. The mixer is just like the one my cousin had that always said I should have been her child. She passed away in 2000. It proves to be of great value due to it still runs after all the years. Thanks.
