Editor's Note:
It’s September 2000, and the Northern Ireland Peace Agreement is only two years old. Leaving behind her life as a playwright in Los Angeles, the author plans to visit Belfast for three months. She assumes that after 30 years of the terrorism, riots and imprisonment of the Troubles, Belfast must be little more than a sad and burnt out shell. Instead she finds a complex town, some of it transforming into peace and prosperity, some of it still utterly entrenched in the past. But all of it full of people living vividly in the present—spurred on by great humor, resilience and bitter memory. Like most things in Belfast, the personal soon gives way to the political. The author sets out to understand the obstacles that have conspired to keep North's Protestant-British and Catholic-Irish from peaceful co-existence for centuries. She interviews poets, politicians, police officers, former IRA and Ulster Volunteer Force members, students, children and working people, each offering another piece of the puzzle. This is a town of longstanding feuds, crowded pubs and brilliant wit. Of poetry and myth, industry and hard work, and the shipyard that built the Titanic. A country of ghosts, psychics and healers, farmers and storytellers, of intense natural beauty, and maybe, a chance for peace.PLEASE NOTE: This is the second edition of AN OLD CASTLE STANDING ON A FORD, under the new title, ADVENTURES IN BELFAST (Kindle version of AN OLD CASTLE).
