M for Mammy

THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER

‘Heart-breaking, heart-warming, and hilarious: a glorious debut’ Ruth Hogan

‘Strong and taut’ Anne Griffin

Meet the Augustts: a loving, Irish family who, like all families, are a bit complicated.

They are bound together by their love for each other, but each expresses themselves in a very different way. When misfortune strikes the family, they must learn to understand each other anew. Sometimes, in a family as complicated as the Augustts, it’s not always what is spoken that makes the most sense.

Everything is shaken up when Granny Mae-Anne moves in and takes charge. A force of nature, full of stern words and no-nonsense common sense, it is she who must try and hold the family together.

M FOR MAMMY is an uplifting story about the unique comfort of home, the language we can find when the words aren’t there, and the power of a family to heal itself.
