Derry Radical Bookfair

Derry Radical Bookfair

This first ever Radical Book Fair organised as part of this year’s Bloody Sunday events by Derry Radical Bookfair Collective  will play host to 12 booksellers from all over Ireland and beyond.

Offering books of local, national and international interests including social and labour history as well as themes covering radical feminism, queer liberation, anarchism, marxism, republicanism and environmentalism it will offer reading materials hard if not impossible to find at mainstream book shops.

Dr Emit O'Connor

It is a shot in the arm to Derry’s own radical history.  In the docks the men organised, in the factories the women unionised and on the streets the people mobilised tearing down the walls around those who would prefer to see us in divided.
