Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Thousands of republicans were imprisoned over a thirty-year period and served lengthy sentences beginning in 1970 as a result of the struggle to end British rule in Ireland. Their experiences generated huge body of prison literature, comparable to earlier periods in the independence struggle. Former POWs, as well as writing their memoirs, have written short stories, novels, plays and screenplays and, of course, poetry. The writings of Bobby Sands, for example, have never been out of print over the past forty-two years and have been translated into many languages.Eoghan 'Gino' Mac Cormaic from Derry served fifteen years in jail and was on the blanket protest for five years at a time when ten of his comrades died on hunger strike. Eoghan began writing poems on toilet paper and cigarette papers and smuggled them out to his family who kept them safe from British Army raids and seizures. Some of the poems were published in Republican News.A selection of these early 'blanket' poems, and other prison poems written after the protest, give us an insight into Eoghan and his comrades' lives - which even the prison couldn't contain - and allows us to look with them from their cell windows out into the world where hopes and dreams would be realised someday. Eoghan 'Gino' Mac Cormaic from Derry served 15 years in jail and was on the blanket protest for 5 years at a time when 10 of his comrades died on hunger strike. The poems he wrote, smuggled out to his family who kept them safe from British Army raids, now give us an insight into his and his comrades' prison lives.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. 'Plotting was the natural consequence of the isolation we were detained in,' wrote John Sarsfield Casey, a Fenian prisoner in Pentonville in 1866, facing deportation. The prisoners established lines of communication to keep connected to each other and to the outside world.Republicans constantly defied and resisted authority. They smuggled; they planned escapes; and they disseminated news and told their stories in a literature which was central to morale and the integrity of the struggle.In Captive Columns Eoghan Mac Cormaic looks at the literature of the republican press which saw the production of over sixty prison titles-often handwritten or typed. From the pinpricked sheets of toilet paper in Pentonville to Bobby Sands' poetry, written on toilet paper and smuggled out to be published, this is an astonishing story which has never been examined in such detail before.
