The Troubles Files - International Monthly Subscription

Most people who read Troubles non-fiction read it alone. This ends that.

Every month, one carefully selected Troubles non-fiction title arrives at your door, tracked and dispatched from Belfast Books. We purchase the full allocation the moment we select a title, securing the stock before it disappears. Before your book arrives, you receive a reading brief covering the sourcing, the silences, the author's position, and exactly what to look for on the way through. Then you join the Armchair Council: a live 90-minute session where the book answers for itself, led by Mr Books from Belfast Books, with occasional invited expert guests.

This is not a book subscription. It is a room that has not existed until now: serious readers examining this history with the rigour it deserves, without a sectarian, political, or religious scoreboard.

Each month brings a different title, chosen from over twelve years of serious Troubles non-fiction bookselling: books that have gone out of print, books that customers have hunted for years, books that reward a focused, attentive read.

Membership includes:

• One carefully selected book per month, full allocation secured before it goes out of print, delivered tracked
• A reading brief before every dispatch
• A live monthly Armchair Council session on Zoom
• Members-only session recordings
• A private Skool community with sourcing alerts, first-dibs notifications, and the quarterly read list
