including an older Caroline Weeks.

Trinity was my first Uris read but also read Exodus, Topaz, QB VII, Mila 18, and Redemption; not a bad read in the lot though cannot recall much specifics except for Trinity and Redemption as re-read 5 years or so ago.

I was visiting my Catholic relatives in County Down in 1981 when Bobby Sands died of a hunger strike at the Maze Prison.

Interesting times and what led me to read Trinity.
