Bobby Sands Book Launch - Queens University

Sheena Cambell Ógra Shinn Féin to launch Book

Ógra Shinn Féin have organised a book launch in Queens Students Union. Denis O’Hearn will be in Queens on Wednesday the 15th November to promote his book “Bobby Sands – Nothing but an unfinished song”.

This event comes at the end of a remarkable year which has seen numerous events across the country to mark the 25th anniversary of the hunger strikes. His book tells the story of Bobby Sands who is an enduring figure of resistance and whose life has inspired millions around the world.

Until the publication of this book, nothing has adequately explored the motivation of the hunger strikers, nor recreated this period of history from within the prison cell.

Denis O’Hearn’s powerful biography, which contains an enormous amount of new material based on primary research and interviews, illuminates for the first time this enigmatic, controversial and heroic figure.

Speaking on behalf of the Sheena Campbell cumann at Queens, Caoímhe Crossan said:

“We are honoured that Denis O’Hearn approached us to assist in promoting a remarkable book, about such an iconic figure throughout the republican struggle. Bobby Sands was only 27 when he gave his life to gain political status for republican prisoners. It is therefore a fitting tribute that young republicans today are continuing his memory and the fight for freedom.”
