Description

"Mammy" is what Irish children call their moms and The Mammy is Agnes Browne--a widow struggling to boost seven children in a Northern Dublin community in the 1960s. Well-Known Irish comedian Brendan O'Carroll chronicles the amusing misadventures of the vibrant and large household with good love and natural laughter. Pressured to become mother, father, and umpire to her fighting family, the ever-ingenious Agnes Browne periodically finds an extra second to industry news and quips with her best friend Marion Monks (alias "The Kaiser") and actually finds himself attacked by the passionate Frenchman who operates the neighborhood pizza shop. Such as the books of Roddy Doyle, The Mammy functions pitch-perfect dialogue, turbo humor, and a number of colorful people.
