Author: Seamus Murphy

Format: Hardback

Number of Pages: 224


One hundred years after Ireland's 1916 Rising, the revolt that ultimately lead to independence, who are the Irish and what has become of the republic they made? After two decades of photographing people caught up in their own dreams and tragedies in places like Syria, Afghanistan and Iraq, Seamus Murphy, exile and escapee, returns to dig deep into the forces and mysteries that have driven - and sometimes beguiled - his own country since its birth. From Tuam to Tinahely, Ballycroy to Ballaghaderreen, Dublin to Ireland's wilder western shores, Murphy turns his eye on the country he still considers a home. Affectionate and wry, The Republic is an immediate and intensely personal portrait of a country.
