Bestseller

'Brendan O’Carroll is a born storyteller ... A cross between Robin Williams and Billy Connelly.'
The Independent

The book that inspired the hit TV series Mrs Brown's Boys, the first in the Agnes Browne trilogy.

The Mammy is Agnes Browne – a widow struggling to raise seven children in a North Dublin neighborhood in the 1960s. Popular Irish comedian Brendan O'Carroll chronicles the comic misadventures of this large and lively family with raw humour and great affection. Forced to be mother, father, and referee to her battling clan, the ever-resourceful Agnes Browne occasionally finds a spare moment to trade gossip and quips with her best pal Marion Monks (alias 'The Kaiser') and even finds herself pursued by the amorous Frenchman who runs the local pizza parlor. Like the novels of Roddy Doyle, The Mammy features pitch-perfect dialogue, lightning wit, and a host of colourful characters. Earthy and exuberant, the novel brilliantly captures the brash energy and cheerful irreverence of working-class Irish life.

'Hilarious and irreverent. A must-read.'
Gabriel Byrne

'He’s done one hell of a job of capturing the absolute essence of a widowed mother of seven in working-class Dublin.'
Anjelica Huston

'The Mammy is a heartwarming and very funny book.'
Roddy Doyle, Booker prize-winning author of Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha
