Reviews

"Dublin – in all its splendor and grit, poetry and profanity – is once again brought to life by Martha Long’s irresistible voice. Her many trials and tribulations are no match for the fierce determination and wicked sense of humor she so deftly deploys. Brew up a strong pot of tea and get ready for a wild, often dark but always inspiring ride through 1960s Ireland." —Tom Deignan, Irish Voice

Martha Long has a talent of interlacing her tragic life story with humor ... a fluently written and absorbing memoir, which will horrify and inspire." —Ulster Tatler

"Long's story is a gritty, grueling, and heartbreaking testament to one girl's unbreakable spirit." —Publishers Weekly
