Product Description

Product Description

Derry in the 1970s: teenager Joe Logan is growing up in the teeth of the Troubles, having to cope with embittered parents, a brother who's been away and come back with money and a gun in his pocket, harsh school teachers, and the constant awareness of the military presence in the background. Central to the story is the friendship that tentatively grows up between Joe and Kathleen, a young school-teacher who brings a fresh perspective to his familiar world.

'Shadows on our skin'- a slice of Joe's everyday life. 11 Jun 2000
By Sam - Published on Amazon.com

At home in Derry, young Joe Logan is tormented by the demands of his father who was once a hero. This book is a look at Joes life, the good and the bad. The atmosphere of the area around him is enough on its own to be enthralling.
