Julieann Campbell Knihy
Julieann Campbellová sa vo svojej tvorbe zameriava na silu osobných príbehov a kolektívnej pamäte, najmä v kontexte severoírskeho konfliktu. Jej poézia aj próza sa vyznačujú hlbokým empatickým vhľadom a pozornosťou k detailom, ktoré odhaľujú ľudskosť aj v tých najnáročnejších situáciách. Campbellová sa usiluje o to, aby jej písanie slúžilo ako most pre pochopenie a zmierenie, čím dáva hlas tým, ktorých príbehy sú často opomínané.

On 30th January 1972 thirteen people were shot dead and a further fourteen wounded, one of whom died later, by British paratroopers during a peaceful civil rights march in Derry. In June 2010, thirty-eight years later, Lord Saville s report made headlines all over the world, and the people of Derry were brought to a stunned silence as British Prime Minister David Cameron apologized on behalf of his government and his country for the unjustified and unjustifiable acts of Bloody Sunday. Setting the Truth Free is the first ever account of the remarkable Bloody Sunday Justice Campaign as told by the campaigners, relatives and the wounded themselves. Many books have been written on the subject but few mention in significant detail how these ordinary people achieved the impossible and unwittingly made history. Determined to clear their loved ones names, this group took on the might of the British government, and won. Each major turning point during the campaign is described and accompanied by family testimonies. Written by Derry journalist and niece of Jackie Duddy who was killed on that day, with a foreword by political activist Gareth Peirce. Winner of the Christopher Ewart Biggs Award in 2013."
