Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland by Patrick Radden Keefe

challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad tense slow-paced

5.0

An unnerving look at the Troubles and the trauma it unleashed on an entire nation for generation after generation. The author is able to clearly and concisely describe what occurred in a matter-of-fact way without coming across as cold or indifferent.

The contrast between Gerry Adams who has done very well for himself, and those under his command who were forever scarred and traumatized is particularly unsettling.

This is a book that’ll stay with you for a long time.
