Saturday, 28 January 1967. It is a day like any other for
eighteen-year-old Danny, pulling pints behind the bar of the
International Hotel in Belfast, watching the comings and goings of
the eccentric clientele. But ordinary days like this are almost
over. The hotel has already been witness to the city's dark
tendencies - Danny's job was only secured after another barman was
shot. And with the inaugural meeting of the Northern Ireland Civil
Rights Association the following day, Belfast is on the cusp of
changing forever ... Widely praised by writers and critics,
including Colm Toibin and A.L. Kennedy, The International is 'the
best book about the Troubles ever written'. The book also contains
an essay by Glenn Patterson and a critical essay by Anne Enright.
Glenn Patterson is also the author of Burning Your Own, Fat Lad and
The Third Party, all published by Blackstaff Press.
