Description - The Red And The Green by Iris Murdoch
Murdoch's only historical novel, set in Ireland in 1916 on the eve of the Easter Rebellion in Dublin
As the Easter Rebellion looms, tension mounts in the rain-soaked streets of Dublin. Tension is also ratcheting up at home. Pat Dumay is a Catholic and an Irish patriot. His relentlessly pious mother pursues her own private war with his stepfather, a man sunk in religious speculation and drink. Meanwhile Pat's Protestant soldier cousin, Andrew Chase-White, puzzles out his complex emotions about Ireland and the girl he loves. Weaving between them moves Millie Kinnard- fast, feminist, and only just respectable.
