SUMMARY:Night & Day by John Connolly - Book Signing
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Book Signing in No Alibis Bookstore\nwith \nJohn Connolly\n \nFollowing the highly acclaimed Nocturnes and Night Music\, Night & Day is filled with eerie surprises and dark delights. Night & Day takes us from the dusty shelves of an uncanny library filled with fictional characters to a bunker deep beneath the earth where scientists seek revenge on old Nazis\, from an English marsh haunted by a mother and her son to a country house where a grieving widower finds comfort in a most unlikely source. Concluding with the author’s account of how an obscure horror film brought him closer to his lost father\, and how nostalgia can help through our hardest times\, this is a collection that will move\, entertain\, and keep you reading late into the night. \nThis is a FREE event.

SUMMARY:LAUNCH EVENT: Rebel Women by Margaret Ward
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the launch of Margaret Ward’s new book\, REBEL WOMEN: Cumann na mBan in Belfast and the Glens of Antrim\, 1914–1924\, published by Beyond The Pale Books. \nAbout REBEL WOMEN: \nThe early years of the twentieth century saw nationalists in County Antrim fighting for their survival during a war intended to achieve the complete separation of Ireland from Britain. Belfast\, with its large Presbyterian population\, became the centre of Ulster unionist resistance and republican defiance. Here\, Cumann na mBan was organised in Belfast Central Branch and Craobh Iarthar – the West Belfast Branch. \nThe small nationalist population in the isolated communities of the Glens of Antrim\, where some of the last native speakers of the Irish language lived\, also took up arms\, despite being vastly outnumbered. There were Cumann na mBan branches in Ballycastle\, Cushendall\, Dunloy\, Glenravel\, Loughguile\, and Glenariffe. \nSectarian violence\, pogrom\, partition and defeat was the eventual outcome. Throughout\, republican women played an essential role. From the earliest years of Cumann na mBan to the War of Independence\, the Treaty and the ‘Northern Offensive’\, they were significant figures in the republican movement. Not only did they organise arms dumps\, shelter men on the run\, hide money and documents\, provide weaponry for operations\, care for the wounded and organise effective communication systems\, they also paid the price in terms of raids and imprisonment. \nTheir story has never before been told. Using new archival sources and information from some of the relatives of these forgotten activists\, renowned feminist historian Dr Margaret Ward gives us a compelling account of the courageous contributions of over fifty women who were members of Cumann na mBan\, or who were attached to the IRA. \n
