"Jamieson weaves together sport and a history of the Troubles in Northern Ireland together to produce an account of sectarianism that, incredibly after all this time and all that has happened, still has the power to shock."

The author and critic Lesley McDowell reviewed Whose Side Are You On? in the latest issue of The Scottish Review of Books. It's first rate, she says. Nice review. You can read it in full here: http://www.scottishreviewofbooks.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=468:gallimaufry-lesley-mcdowell&catid=55:volume-8-issue-1-2012&Itemid=149

And just a reminder that I am appearing at the Aye Write festival in Glasgow on Sunday alongside Rodge Glass, Alan Bissett and Richard Wilson. Details here: http://www.ayewrite.com/programme/events/Pages/Football-and-Sectarianism.aspx

See you there maybe?
