Title: The Other Half Lives Author: Wally Cassidy Foreword: Tony Murray Introduction: Gavin Corbett ISBN: 978-0-9569493-2-5 Format: Hardback, 240x257mm Extent: 144 pages, duotone Weight: 1.2kg Published: May 2014.
In these pages, on these streets (they begin to feel like one and the same thing), you’ll find heated protests, burning dummies, punks pissing on post-apocalyptic waste grounds, falling horsemen, dogs ready to pounce … You can practically hear the clang of metal barriers being rushed and the rattle of knuckles on placards.

In 130 photographs from the early 1990s, Wally Cassidy captures pre-boom Dublin in all its tattered glory. Loosely divided into four sections – Street, Protest, Smithfield and Punks – these images reflect the tensions and contradictions of a nation struggling to define itself. At times harsh, but tempered with humour and humanity, The Other Half Lives is an honest and arresting collection.
