Synopsis

It’s the biggest thing to hit Ulster since the recession, and now the Facebook sensation is in print for the first time. Pure Derry brings you local and world satire from Derry – the self-appointed centre of the universe.

About the Author

Anonymous is an artist.

Long before Mark Zuckerberg started taking over the universe, one friend request at a time, Pure Derry lived on an old-fashioned website. One that was lovingly hand-built with good ol' HTML pages, dodgy blue links, animated GIFs and one of those groovy hit counters that went up by one every time someone came knocking.

Pure Derry returned to the world of men in the shape of a Facebook page in the summer of 2012. Freed from the shackles of producing time-consuming 'editions', the editor (it is rumoured) now simply writes stuff during his lunch break, hits post and goes back to work. Others claim he gets £1 from Bill Gates every time someone shares a post.

Pure Derry now has more than 18,000 fans on Facebook and is known to a new generation of readers, who were probably too busy playing with Power Rangers last time to pay much attention last time out.

This book is all our best bits (not necessarily in chronological order); the jokes, stories and features that you've laughed at, objected to, commented on and shared over the last ten years.
