  Jennifer Johnston Monday 11 November 2002  
Intriguingly titled This Is Not A Novel, Jennifer Johnston's new book deals with the loss of a beloved son. The boy is sent to fight in the First World War to "cure" his homosexuality.

On Armistice Day, Jennifer Johnston will be talking about how one family's struggle to come to terms with homosexuality through the generations reflects the larger shifts in Irish society over the last century.
This Is Not A Novel by Jennifer Johnston is published by Review Books ISBN 0 7472 6945.
