Just Mary by Mary O'rourke

Mary ORourke has been one of the most successful and influential women in Irish public life in a generation. She has stories to tell that will surprise and amuse, as well as recalling moments of personal and political sadness. The book is like the woman herself: open, warm and shrewd.

'It's a fascinating story..a great read'

-- John Spain * Irish Independent *

This memoir is a fairly honest self-portrait of the Mary O’Rourke whom we have all come to love and hate. The Mary we have all seen over the years is the Mary we get in this book: emotional and exasperating; schoolmarmish and quite contrary; imbued with the Fianna Fáil gene and very party-political.

-- Geraldine Kennedy * The Irish Times *

Mary O’Rourke is a former Deputy Leader of her party, who has held a number of senior Cabinet positions. She has also been Leader of the Seanad and is a frequent guest on radio and television.
