Father, Son, Brother Ghost by John MacKenna: Launching 11th July in Athy Library

We are delighted to be selling copies of Father, Son and Brother Ghost, John MacKenna’s new memoir, at the book’s launch in Athy Library on 11th July.

Described by Gabriel Byrne as: A beautiful book. Superbly and movingly written. A life and time recalled without sentiment. John MacKenna casts a cold eye on the sometimes indifferent cruelty of life and the unexpected joy of lanterns lit in the darkness. 

The book will be launched at Athy Library, Co Kildare on Thursday July 11th at 7 pm by Dr John Macdougald and you’re all invited to attend.

The book can be purchased in advance of the launch here:
