I liked Irish Winter. Ian and Devlin meet after watching a young man and his mother shot in cold blood by the RIC. Joining the IRA Ira is often partnered with Devlin, whom he has been attracted to for years. They become close and can admit to each other they are homosexuals and are attracted to each other. The feeling of the times are captured in Irish Winter. It makes me want to learn more about Irish history. There are times when Mr. Simpson steps out of the story to give us a brief history of what is happening in Ireland to rouse the Irish to its hatred of the British. That interferred with the flow of Ian and Devlin's story but I'm glad I read this.
