The first book in the Agnes Browne trilogy Now a film starring Anjelica Huston and Tom Jones 'And what was the cause of death?' 'A Hunter', Agnes said. 'Was he shot', the girl asked incredulously, 'was your husband shot?' 'By who?' Agnes asked this question as if the girl had found out something about her husband's death that she didn't know herself. Then a look of realisation came into her face. 'No! A Hillman Hunter, he was knocked down by a Hillman Hunter!' Agnes Browne is a widow of only a few hours when she goes to the Social Welfare Office. Living in James Larkin Flats, with Redsers' legacy - seven little Brownes - to support on the income from her Moore Street stall, she can't afford to miss a day's pension. Life is like that for Agnes and her best pal Marion. But they still have time for a laugh and a jar, and Agnes even has a dream - that one day she will dance with Cliff Richard. THE MAMMY describes the life and times, the joys and sorrows of Agnes, hero of the BAFTA-nominated TV series Mrs. Browne's Boys. A book of hilarious incidents, glorious characters, and a passion for life, it is written with a sure touch and great ear for dialogue. With a new introduction by the author, Brendan O'Carroll.

Nice book
Bought this book for an Irish friend who had the sequels but had loaned the Mammy and never got it back. He loaned me the following books and I enjoyed them so much I had to get this first one for him. It was ok to read out of sequence and just a nice story.

The Mammy
This was a great & funny book. Well written. For all you Irish out there, it is a great way to learn how your heritage is.

Heartwarming Part of a Trilogy
This book was surprisingly heartwarming! I fell in love with the characters and couldn't wait to read The Granny and The Chisellers. The descriptions of each character were so vivid that you can just picture them and their surroundings. If you like stories of family life, this is a winner!
