In Fiction
Eoin McNamee's 2004 novel The Ultras offers a fictionalised but factually-based account of Nairac's life and career. McNamee has said that he had had "the idea of Nairac in my head for a long time, but I wasn't able to find a way into the whole subject. In the end I used him as a conduit to the covert and psychic infrastructure of the time, to the gripping physical and moral texture of what was going on."
