L'Attaque

Eoghan Ó Tuairisc

L'Attaque recounts the part played by a small group of United Irishmen from County Leitrim in the military revolt which was sparked by the landing of French General Humbert in Killala, Co. Mayo, in 1798. Through the character of Máirtí­n, Ó Tuairisc's novel brilliantly charts the effect of revolutionary fighting on peasant life, the conflicting ideals of the comrades-at-arms and the disorganisation that afflicts their army.
