'Some wounds have never been allowed to heal': Author Martin Doyle on the Troubles
The author of a new book which tells the story of the troubles in Northern Ireland that spanned three decades has spoken to FRANCE 24 about how his aim was to create a microhistory of the period by homing in on his own parish. More than 20 people died in the few square kilometres where Martin Doyle grew up. Doyle has spoken to people from both sides of the divide to document what happened to them in his book "Dirty Linen: The Troubles in My Home Place". He is also currently artist in residence at the Irish Cultural Centre in Paris. He spoke to us in Perspective.
