Trinity was one of the most widely read, beloved novels of our time. Now the epic drama moves into Ireland's most heroic period from the Easter Rising of 1916, when the long-frustrated Irish people exploded into open defiance, through the Black and Tan era and the civil war in the mid-1920s, Against this dramatic backdrop, Uris weaves together the characters we came to know so well in Trinity: Liam Larkin, the middle brother who was forced to emigrate from Ireland to New Zealand in 1885; Atty Fitzpatrick, Conor's last lover and a leading republican; and Liam's son, Rory Larkin, the novel's centerpiece. Like its predecessor, Redemption is a monumental novel about the most powerful aspiration of man -- freedom.
