    North Korea remains one of the most secretive and isolated countries in the world, a nation shrouded in mystery and tightly controlled by its ruling regime. With limited access to information and heavy restrictions on communication with the outside world, understanding what life is truly like inside North Korea has long been a challenge. Despite these barriers, researchers, defectors, and investigative journalists have gradually revealed shocking details about the country’s inner workings.  
      
    The foundation of modern North Korea was established in the aftermath of World War II, when the Korean Peninsula was divided into two separate states. The North, under the leadership of Kim Il-sung, adopted a rigid communist ideology and built a powerful authoritarian regime. Over the decades, this system evolved into a personality cult centered around the ruling Kim family, with Kim Jong-il and later Kim Jong-un continuing to hold absolute control. This dynasty has enforced strict obedience through propaganda, fear, and isolation from the global community.  
      
    Every aspect of life in North Korea is closely monitored. Citizens are subjected to relentless surveillance, with state informants reporting on friends, neighbors, and even family members. This climate of fear ensures that few dare to challenge the regime. Education, media, and cultural expression are all carefully controlled to reinforce loyalty to the Kim family. Information from the outside world is heavily restricted, and those caught accessing foreign media face severe punishment.

    Marking fifty years of the founding of an LGBTQ rights movement in Ireland, Reeling in the Queers explores the lesser-known stories of the fight for LGBTQ rights since 1974, beyond decriminalisation and Marriage Equality. From 1990s boy bands to the AIDS priest, Fr Bernárd Lynch, from the Belfast Lesbian Line to proud parenting, from the earliest Pride events to the last days of Alternative Miss Ireland, fourteen distinct moments map the changing social and cultural landscape of Ireland.
    These stories, from across the island of Ireland – and further afield – celebrate a strong community and its allies, and speak across the generations. Together, they tell a new story of the gains, losses, devastation and community rising from the ashes of defeat. It is a hugely enjoyable and insightful read for both those who lived through this movement and for those who enjoy its benefits today.
    Drawing from oral history as well as archives, Reeling in the Queers brings even more to life the great big queer tapestry in Ireland. Queer history in Ireland is Irish history and acknowledging and celebrating the light and the dark of it protects all of our futures as much as our pasts.
