Getting to Good Friday: Literature and the Peace Process in Northern Ireland

Getting to Good Friday uses literary texts by writers with connections to Northern Ireland, including Brian Friel, Deirdre Madden, and Colum McCann to illustrate peace process developments in the lead up to the Good Friday Agreement, arguing that creative writers were both responding to contemporary events and trying to influence them.
