An author from Derry has won a prestigious American literary award from Yale University for his nonfiction writing.
Darran Anderson, whose work includes the 2020 'Inventory' recalling his childhood growing up in the city during the Troubles, is one of eight authors from around the world to be recognised in this year's Windham-Campbell Prizes.
The Derry man said his first reaction to finding out he had won was "holy ****, is this real?"
