WINNER OF THE GORDON BURN PRIZE 2019 SHORTLISTED FOR THE ENCORE
AWARD 2020 From the author of This Is Memorial Device. 'A
gasp-inducing thrill of a ride.' i Independent 'An exhilarating
novel, burning with rage, danger and dark humour.' Literary Review
'Remarkable . . . demented brilliance.' Scotland on Sunday Belfast,
1970s: Sammy and his three friends live in an impoverished area of
the city that has become the epicentre of a country seemingly
intent on cannibalising itself. They love sharp clothes, a good
drink, and the songs of Perry Como, whose commitment to clean
living holds up a dissonant mirror to their own attempts to rise
above their circumstances. They dream of a Free State, and their
methods for achieving this are uncompromising. But For the Good
Times is not just a novel about the IRA. It is about the heartbreak
and devastation that commitment to 'the cause' can bring; of
violence and betrayal, breakdown and rebirth.
