Beschreibung

<p><b>Follow Colm Tóibín's lone religious pilgrimage along the Irish border during the tumultuous summer of 1987.</b><br><br>In the summer after the Anglo-Irish Agreement, when tension was high in Northern Ireland, Colm Tóibín walked along the border from Derry to Newry. <i>Bad Blood</i> is a stark and evocative account of this journey through fear and hatred, and a report on ordinary life and the legacy of history in a bleak and desolate landscape.<br><br>Tóibín describes the rituals - the marches, the funerals, the demonstrations - observed by both communities along the border, and listens to the stories which haunt both sides. With sympathy and insight <i>Bad Blood</i> captures the intimacy of life along one of the most contested strips of land in Western Europe.<br><br><b>Now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.</b></p>
