Book Synopsis A Night in November by : Marie Jones
Download or read book A Night in November written by Marie Jones. This book was released on 1995. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most highly acclaimed Irish comedies of recent years, A Night in November is a hard and humourous look at the Protestant tradition in Northern Ireland. Kenneth McCallister is a dole clerk who tolerates his marriage, his in-laws and Ulster until, on the fateful night in November in Belfast, as the Republic of Ireland qualifies against Northern Ireland for the World Cup, he finds himself watching the sectarian hatred of the crowd rather than the match. A Night in November follows Kenneth McCallister on his rebellious journey as he decides to travel to New York to join the joyous caravan of supporters following the Republic's soccer team. As he crosses the tarmac at Dublin airport, he looks back at his entirely predictable existence, roars with laughter and boards a flight into the unknown. Not a play about football but about one man who suddenly realises that he can have a hand in his own destiny.

Book Synopsis Inventing the Myth by : Connal Parr
Download or read book Inventing the Myth written by Connal Parr. This book was released on 2017-07-25. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book approaches Ulster Protestantism through its theatrical and cultural intersection with politics, re-establishing a forgotten history and engaging with contemporary debates. Anchored by the perspectives of ten writers - some of whom have been notably active in political life - it uniquely examines tensions going on within. Through its exploration of class division and drama from the early twentieth century to the present, the book restores the progressive and Labour credentials of the community's recent past along with its literary repercussions, both of which appear in recent decades to have diminished. Drawing on over sixty interviews, unpublished scripts, as well as rarely-consulted archival material, it shows - contrary to a good deal of clichéd polemic and safe scholarly assessment - that Ulster Protestants have historically and continually demonstrated a vigorous creative pulse as well as a tendency towards Left wing and class politics. St. John Ervine, Thomas Carnduff, John Hewitt, Sam Thompson, Stewart Parker, Graham Reid, Ron Hutchinson, Marie Jones, Christina Reid, and Gary Mitchell profoundly challenge as well as reflect their communities. Illuminating a diverse and conflicted culture stretching beyond Orange Order parades, the weaving together of the lives and work of each of the writers highlights mutual themes and insights on their identity, as if part of some grander tapestry of alternative twentieth-century Protestant culture. Ulster Protestantism's consistent delivery of such dissenting voices counters its monolithic and reactionary reputation.
