Do You Like Oranges?

By Kevin Doyle

In Down The Tunnels a sidelined, former policeman relives his famous role in the 'big case' when an innocent man was framed for his part in an audacious robbery. In But Your Mother a protester is forced to recognize that his actions will have negative consequences for his ailing mother. In Do You Like Oranges? a youth endures a mock execution. In the bleak eighties in Ireland political dissent is rife and the Gardaí have resorted to ‘heavy methods’. The characters in all these stories are living with the consequences
