Belfast, 1970s: Sammy and his three friends live in an impoverished area
of the city that has become the epicentre of a country seemingly intent
on cannibalising itself. They love sharp clothes, a good drink, and the
songs of Perry Como, whose commitment to clean living holds up a
dissonant mirror to their own attempts to rise above their
circumstances.
They dream of a Free State, and their methods for
achieving this are uncompromising. But For the Good Times is not just a
novel about the IRA. It is about the heartbreak and devastation that
commitment to 'the cause' can bring; of violence and betrayal, breakdown
and rebirth.
