Love is the foundation of this powerful Irish story, set amidst the background of the author's hilarious childhood in the heart of 1970s and 80s working-class Dublin. Spent between two households, her 'Nanny's, ' where she is cared for by her adorable aunt Esther, and her mother's home, a delightful, vibrant, centre of mayhem. Sheila takes us on a madcap adventure from Dublin's Pearse Square to the streets of New York, and wherever she goes, she is surrounded by a cast of exquisite, eccentric, and comical characters. But there is a twist to this story, a realisation, a revelation this child never knew, or noticed.
Through life's triumphs, sorrows and magic, the elevating power of unconditional and enduring love is the source of her strength.
