I Will Be Good by Peig Mcmanus

In the tradition of classic Irish memoirs such as Are You Somebody? and Angela's Ashes comes an unforgettable story of a life less ordinary.
What begins as another "misery memoir", like Angela's Ashes with Dublin accents, morphs into something far more interesting * Irish Times *

Peig McManus was born in 1939 and grew up in one of the last of Dublin's tenements, under the shadow of the Second World War.
She learned early about social barriers and, from a young age, set about a path of community activism and educational reform.
Peig trained as a therapist and worked for many national organisations. She worked in radio and television for many years, and pursued studies and practice in homeopathy and meditation.
Now in her eighties, the mother of five recounts her journey to becoming herself in her unforgettable memoir I Will Be Good.
