Call me Mrs. Brown by Brendan O’Carroll

Before he became the nation’s favourite Mammy, Brendan O’Carroll was known, simply as Brendan. He’s the youngest of 11 children from a poor family in Dublin, he’s a boy whose father died when he was just nine years old; he’s someone whose hope and determination meant he never gave up. Throughout the tough moments, Brendan always had humour and a good story to tell alongside the ever-guiding inspiration of his own Mammy, a formidable figure who became Ireland’s first female Labour MP, all whilst raising her children by herself. Just like the show so brilliantly expresses, Brendan’s first autobiography, the real story behind the man who became Mrs Brown, combines uplifting heart, warmth and hilarity.
