Description

Backstop Land is a darkly entertaining portrait of Northern Ireland's fragile country. Written in 2019, it offers a unique insight into a region where paramilitary forces still carry out beatings and the power-sharing government has not met in over 1,000 days.

The author brings a lifetime's engagement with Northern Ireland to this informative book, which explores the battle over the UK's decision to leave the EU and its impact on the region. With the Brexit saga still unfolding, this book provides a timely and thought-provoking look at a part of an increasingly disunited Kingdom.

Glenn Patterson's book is a worthwhile read for anyone looking to understand why the situation in Northern Ireland has become so volatile. It is a thought-provoking and engaging read that sheds light on a complex and often overlooked region.
