‘Imagine all around you, for as far as the eye can see, there is nothing but rubble’

The writer, Fintan Drury, will be in Little Acorns bookshop this Friday evening, July 17 at 7pm to discuss his new book with Eamonn McCann. ‘Genocide: Sponsoring the Destruction of Palestine’ (Merrion Press) follows last year's bestselling ‘Catastrophe Nakba II’, which was shortlisted for the An Post Irish Non-Fiction Book of the Year. While it set the historical context for the ongoing genocide, the new book establishes that the West has sponsored the destruction of Palestine. In an opinion piece for the Derry Journal, Fintan here details the global context for his new book.
