Gerry Adams

Former Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams is known as a man of strong opinions and a quirky sense of humour. Never Give Up is a compilation of selected, reworked pieces that Gerry has written since 2009. They cover many issues. Some are fairly serious, others are very serious indeed. A few are whimsical. The book gives an insight into the manoeuvring behind the scenes of political events, and how he became wrapped up in moments of history, both in Ireland and abroad. It provides a glimpse into the private life of one of Ireland’s best-known politicians, including some very turbulent times in Gerry’s life, such as his move from West Belfast to Co. Louth, and his passions, like hiking and the Antrim GAA teams. Gerry will read selections from his books.
