TITANIC TOWN Memoirs of a Belfast Girlhood

"Based on the author's own experience, "Titanic Town" tells the inside story of his life in Catholic West Belfast during in the Troubles from the point of view of schoolgirl Annie McPhelimy. Annie lives in a no-go IRA stronghold, not far from the peace line, a half hearted and in places permable Berlin Wall, thrown up in the seventies to prevent impoverished Protestants and oppressed and impoverished catholics from "knocking the shite out of each other"."
