About this product

Product Information

The final book in the Agnes Browne trilogy. 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 every 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 Browne 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, filmed as Agnes Browne by Angelica Huston, and the BAFTA-winning TV series Mrs Brown's Boys.

  • I felt I was there at times.

    I my humble opinion, this is the best of the trilogy, I couldn't put it down and have to admit that the ending had this 60+ year old in tears. I'm not going into detail to much suffice to say that having read "The young wan", "the mammy", "the chisellers" this book completes the story perfectly. Brendan o Carroll is a genius. Throughout all the books I have laughed and cried but "the granny" is the only one I cried more at.
