Book Description
At forty-seven years of age Agnes, now thirteen years happily widowed, enters the 1980s with a fruit stall in Moore Street, a French lover and six children, five of them in their twenties.

Becoming a grandmother is a terrible shock to her system, especially as Agnes suffers ever one of her daughter-in-law's labour pains! And as the family expands so do the problems one son's inevitable brush with the law, the heartbreak of emigration. But Agnes Brown is nothing if not a fighter, and she squares her shoulders, offers up a quick one to her departed pal, Marion, and sets about getting things back on an even keel or as even as things ever get in the Brown household!

The same quick fire dialogue, hilarious humour and great characterisation as in Brendan's bestselling THE MAMMY.
