"Before he became the nation's favourite Mammy, Brendan O'Carroll was known, simply as Brendan. He's the youngest of ten children from a poor family in Dublin, his father died when he was nine years old. Leaving school at the age of twelve, Brendan began what would become a long and varied working life: he would go on to be a water, a publican, a window cleaner and a publisher, among other jobs. 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. His hope and determination meant he never gave up, and eventually a chance opportunity to perform stand-up would pave the way for the TV show that would become 'Mrs. Brown's Boys.' In his own unique voice, Brendan O'Carroll strings together the threads of his life, a helter-skelter story tracing the ... journey of a kid from Finglas, Dublin to TV screens around the world"--back cover.
