Say Nothing

One night in December 1972, Jean McConville, a widowed mother of ten, was abducted from her home in Belfast and never seen again. The abduction was one of the most notorious episodes of the Troubles and, through the prism of this single dark event, Radden Keefe opens up the entire world of the Troubles and its aftermath.

Central to this world of violence and deceit is Dolours Price who, barely out of her teens, was already planting bombs in London and became the first woman to join the frontline IRA. Alongside her are the slippery and charismatic Gerry Adams, Brendan Hughes, the ferocious IRA commander known as The Dark, and others including Bobby Sands, Dolours' sister Marian and their diehard parents, Chrissie and Albert. Their incredible story reads like the very best thriller.

Radden Keefe has been called the 'master of narrative non-fiction' and, with this book, it is easy to see why. It is probably one of the most illuminating books about the Troubles you will ever read, as well as a compelling and profoundly human one.

In addition to the original photographs, we have a new selection chosen by the author, featuring some of the finest photographers of the Troubles, including Chris Steele-Perkins, whose images of daily life in Belfast are moving and astonishing. And a brand new, exclusive introduction by Northern Irish poet Paul Muldoon adds a whole other dimension, as he gives us his personal view of Northern Ireland then and now.
