The Red Suitcase: From Belfast to London - what would you do to save your country?

Autor Catrienne McGuire
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 iun 2020
Cathy O'Neil is dying. Her grandchildren deserve to know the truth of her life. A life hidden away in a red suitcase full of letters and clothes. These describe the madness and grief of the Troubles in Northern Ireland. Cathy's young life is marred by living with the threats of violence from all sides. Touts are tortured. The police endanger innocents. The kangaroo courts of the militant armies lead to death and misery for countless families. At the heart of this is the collusion of politics and violence. What will Cathy's legacy be? The confusing, bitter, bewildering truth that her grandchildren will have to learn to live with and endure like so many others.

Notă biografică

Catrienne McGuire worked as a clinician for many years, within mental health. She wrote her first book 'Always a Hero' in 2010, when after visiting a friend in Sellyoak Military hospital wing, she saw the dreadful injuries inflicted on some of the soldiers that had been flown in directly from Afghanistan. Catrienne went on to write books that described how PTSD affects many and changes lives but also about the strength of the women and families that are close to them. Her most recent book 'The Red Suitcase' is inspired by her own grandmother, a formidable lady in her own right. 'The Red Suitcase' is a book of courage, politics and violence set to the backdrop of the madness and grief of the Troubles in Northern Ireland. Catrienne also likes to take a moment away from "the heavy stuff" to write children's books. In these, we read about 'Butters and Big Mac School Detectives' who come up against characters like Cat Ching, leader of a villainous cat gang. Catrienne McGuire has always loved writing and hopes that her readers get as much joy from her work as she does.
