John Lennon's Dead
Stories of Protest, Hunger Strikes & Resistance
By Síle Darragh

`John Lennon's Dead` is the ironic title of Síle Darragh's account of a life of protest and resistance in Armagh Gaol in the late 1970s and early 1980s, including the two hunger strikes, and of how life on the outside played out on the inside.

It is a rare account of life in Armagh women's prison. Síle writes about the horrific conditions, the ill-treatment, the comradeship, the formulation of strategy and of how they were still just teenagers who in normal circumstances would have been thinking about discos, buying clothes and make-up, and building homes.

Told with wry humour and great feeling it goes a long way in redressing the imbalance in the prison history which for many reasons has focused on the blanket protest in the H-Blocks where the ten Republicans died on hunger strike in 1981.

This new edition (2022) includes a Foreword by Rita O'Hare (former prisoner in Armagh and Limerick, and former Sinn Féin representative in the United States), an Afterword by Mairéad Farrell ( Sinn Féin TD, Galway West and South Mayo) and a special Scéalta discussion, from October 2021, with four former prisoners in Armagh Gaol: Síle Darragh, Anne-Maire Quinn, Sinead Moore and Mary Doyle.

Rita – A Memoir

Veteran republican, IRA Volunteer Rita O’Hare led an astonishing life. She was imprisoned three times—in Armagh Jail (twice) and Limerick Prison; survived being shot and gravely injured by the British Army; became a writer, editor, Director of Publicity, and Sinn Féin’s representative in Washington.

Nelson Mandela referred to her as his ‘little warrior’. Of all republicans she was the longest ‘on the run’. But above all she was devoted to her beloved partner Brendan, to her four children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Rita is the memoir she was writing at the time of her death in March 2023.
