Proclamation of the Second Republic (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781505203868)

The first novel from Ian Kilroy. 'They say that we are terrorists. What else would they say? But what we achieved will inspire those that come after us. For the moment, we are the nuts that set out to put a knife through the Taoiseach's heart. But in the coming insurrection they'll be carrying banners with our portraits, citing our manifesto on the illegal airwaves, erecting a mausoleum to those of us lost in the struggle. Future citizens of the coming Republic will honour us, even if now our very names are ridiculed and despised.' Patrick Shannon is almost the lone resident of a half-built tower complex on the outskirts of Dublin. With the country falling to pieces all around him, he decides to set out and exact revenge from those he holds responsible. Proclamation of the Second Republic is the story of an unlikely 'terrorist', a young man who channels the tradition of Irish physical force republicanism in a new direction.
