About this audiobook

THE UNFORGETTABLE TRUE STORY BEHIND SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING MEMOIR, FINDING TIPPERARY MARY. A brutal and touching account of the life of Bridget 'Tipperary Mary' Larkin. She faced poverty, bereavement, cruelty and abandonment many times over – yet never lost the heart to pursue true love. Returning to rural Ireland in 1938 and a young girl full of hope and expectation, A Song for Bridget recounts a series of tragic events that eventually bring her to Manchester and Birmingham – and a desperate daily struggle to survive. Bridget's haunting story, told in the words of her daughter, is a perfect example of both the fragility and resilience of the human spirit.
