Me And Mine is a wonderfully entertaining memoir that is reminiscent of Angela’s Ashes.
Me And Mine tells the story of an Irish immigrant family who left rural Ireland in the 1950s to find work and a better way of life in England. But home is never far away as aunts and uncles meet up in Irish dance halls, or smuggle poteen disguised as holy water in Virgin Mary-shaped bottles, and have gossip delivered weekly in the form of the local county paper.
Battling poverty, death, illness and everyday life, this is a story of survival, triumph and laughter in the face of adversity told with wit and warmth. This truly colourful cast of characters will feel like your own family by the end of the story!
