      W9 & Other Lives spans the world-from Cuba to Connemara, from the Mediterranean.The lives of the characters are as broad as the settings. The characters depicted in these stories are lonely, rootless, and quite often uncertain about what they want or how they would get what they want if only they knew what it was... Yet the collection also celebrates how people endure, begin again and refuse to be crushed by chance and circumstance.First published in 1996 and now reprinted with corrections.

      It is the summer of 1969 and ten-year-old Mal is finding it difficult to settle in his new home, a housing estate on the outskirts of Belfast. He befriends a brash and rebellious teenager, Francy, who revels in his own status as an outsider and has set up camp in the local dump. But this is no ordinary summer - the civil rights marches are beginning, and the simmering sectarian tensions of the Larkview estate are set to erupt, hastening Mal's painful, shocking, loss of innocence. "One of the great novels about Ulster at the start of its Troubles." - Carlo Gebler "Remarkable assured...Patterson's novel, needless to say, is neither afraid nor prejudiced, but courageously magnanimous." - Guardian "A novel of visionary power that sees through a child's eyes a Belfast about to explode into sectarian strife." - Sunday Tribune "This is a very good novel and deserves your immediate attention." - Books Ireland
