Don't Wake Me At Doyle's - Maura Murphy

Don't Wake Me At Doyle's - Maura Murphy
2004, paperback

When seventy-five-year-old Maura Murphy discovered she had cancer, she left her husband of fifty years and started recording her story.

Fearlessly honest, Maura's memoir takes you from her early days running wild in the 1920s Irish countryside, to her destructive marriage to a hard-working, hard-drinking womaniser, the birth of her nine children, leaving Ireland for 1950s Birmingham, and a life-or-death choice that would change her for ever.

Told with biting wit, Don't Wake me at Doyles contains all the explosive power of Angela's Ashes - a remarkable story of an ordinary woman and an extraordinary life.
