Leaving Ireland
ASIN: 0452281032 |

It seems like there's no end to Irish tales depicting unhappy, squalid childhoods in crowded, working-class flats. While Brendan O'Carroll's The Mammy maintains many elements of the traditional genre--the saintly, overworked mother, the Catholic family with an enormous posse of children and any number of abusive alcoholic fathers--it's a somewhat cheerier vision of Irish youth than we've come to expect. The mammy in question, one Agnes Browne, has enough spunk to look after her brood of seven, run a fruit stand at the local open market, gossip viciously with her best friend Marion, and still daydream about dancing with a famous singer.
This is in large part due to the fact that her husband, Redser, who falls squarely into the above-mentioned category, has died--thanks to a careless driver--just before the novel's opening pages. Our first glimpse of the pragmatic, lovable Agnes comes as she's waiting in the social services office on the afternoon of his death, determined not to lose a penny of her widow's benefits as a result of dilly-dallying. She doesn't even have the necessary death certificate yet, but that's not nearly enough to slow down Agnes Brown: "No, love, he's definitely dead. Definitely," she says to the clerk, then, turning to her friend for backup, "Isn't he, Marion?" Marion, made from the same tough stock, agrees solemnly: "Absolutely. I know him years, and I've never seen him look so bad. Dead, definitely dead!" The scene is emblematic: Agnes knows how to fight, and she isn't afraid to do it. Her deadpan humor becomes a hallmark.
As for her children, they get into the usual trouble--fights, girl problems, and the like. But there are also some charming, unexpected episodes in the book. For example, Agnes's oldest child meets a Jewish man and performs small tasks for him on the Sabbath, which eventually leads to greater goods. Among other things, Mark learns about the Jewish faith, new knowledge he accepts with bemusement and some of his mother's innocence and good humor. Upon hearing that the man doesn't celebrate Christmas, he exclaims: "Will yeh go on outta that! How can yeh not believe in something when it's real?"
The book is not without its share of tragedy, but Agnes takes it all with aplomb. She's clearly the glue that binds her pack of youngsters together: "The rule in the Browne family was: 'You hit one, you hit seven.' Since March twenty-ninth and Redser's demise, little had changed in the Browne house. If anything, the house was less tense." The Mammy is a slight book--it tells the simple, fairly conventional tale of a single Irish family--but it makes up for its gaps with humanity, in the same way Agnes Browne makes up for what she and her children lack. --Melanie Rehak
Book Description
Soon to be a major motion picture, this #1 Irish bestseller is a hilarious portrait of working-class Dublin life.
"Mammy" is what Irish children call their mothers and The Mammy is Agnes Browne--a widow struggling to raise seven children in a North Dublin neighborhood in the 1960s. Popular Irish comedian Brendan O'Carroll chronicles the comic misadventures of this large and lively family with raw humor and great affection. Forced to be mother, father, and referee to her battling clan, the ever-resourceful Agnes Browne occasionally finds a spare moment to trade gossip and quips with her best pal Marion Monks (alias "The Kaiser") and even finds herself pursued by the amorous Frenchman who runs the local pizza parlor.
Like the novels of Roddy Doyle, The Mammy features pitch-perfect dialogue, lightning wit, and a host of colorful characters. Earthy and exuberant, the novel brilliantly captures the brash energy and cheerful irreverence of working-class Irish life.

THE MAMMY by Brendan O'Carroll
April 7, 2007
Amazon Rating 5/5 stars
I loved THE MAMMY by Brendan O'Carroll. It's funny, sad, and inspirational all in one. THE MAMMY in some ways reminded me of ANGELA'S ASHES by Frank McCourt, in that both take place in Ireland and both focus on poverty and ill fortune, but told with a light hearted and often times funny voice.
The Mammy is Agnes Browne, who at the start of this novel is a newly made widow. Her husband Redser Browne had just died, and she is doing what she needs to do, file the papers so she can get the money from the government due to her, the widow.
I have to say that every little thing that happens in this book, there is a funny spin on it, as Agnes always looks at the bright side of life, no matter how dark things become. And no matter how hard things get for Agnes, she stays strong. She's got seven children to feed and it's not easy. Her oldest acts like he's the new man of the house, and each of the other children have their own distinct personalities that makes this story richer. Agnes makes a living by selling produce on Moore Street, standing next to her best friend Marion. Between the two of them, the laughs come fast and hard, even when Marion's health is on the line.
THE MAMMY is just one of four in this series of books about a poor Irish family living in the heart of "the Jarro". I can't wait to read the rest of the series.
Adorable characters lie within.......2007-02-19
This book is funny, heartwarming and definitely worth the read. The characters are lovingly drawn. The relationship between Agnes and Marian,(best friends for years) is absolutely wonderful. I love all things Irish and this book is a wonderful example of why. My only complaint is that it is much too short. And since it is the first of three, I feel it should have been made into one larger novel.
Great quick read.......2007-02-18
Easily read in a few hours. It is so enjoyable. The characters are all likeable so you actually care to read on. There is humor. There is sadness but it isn't dwelled on for too long. I'm on Amazon looking up the sequels. This isn't heavy stuff but our own lives are full of heavy stuff so who needs that? :)
I truly think this book would be of interest to young and old of all ages.
Refreshing & funny.......2007-02-06
If Angela's Ashes left you so exhausted you felt like you'd been through the great potato famine yourself, you'll like this refreshing and funny take on the popular theme (impoverished Irish roots).
Being Irish Is Not Always Easy.......2007-01-20
Mamy is a wonderful, touching story of a fatherless family struggling to survive in Dublin,Ireland. My wife and I enjoyed this book so much that we ended up reading the remaining two books in the series, which we also enjoyed very much. However, I would rank Mamy the best of the three.
We have also given copies of Mamy away as gifts and have heard from every friend that they also enjoyed the book so much that they too purchased the other books. Mamy is a sad story of a difficult life, but also very entertaining.

GREAT STORY ABOUT ONE IRISH FAMILY.......2006-08-19
This is a wondeful story about one Irish family living in Dublin. It starts with and follows the life of Agnes Browne. These particular stories start with Agnes becomming a widow and is on her own raising seven children. The author is a natural story teller. He follows the escapades of this wonderful family, it's ups and it's downs. Character developement and humor are the strongest feature of this trilogy. The author is a natural story teller and you will find your self laughing out loud throughout these books as well as shedding a few tears. I cannot recommend this series high enough.
Great Irish Stories better than Angela's Ashes.......2003-05-19
I read all the Agnes Browne novels and absolutely loved every one!! They are heartwarming, sad and extremely funny, especially if you come from an Irish background. Anjelica Hustom made the Mammy into a move and it was hysterical. The only little problem i noticed is that in one book Agnes' mother's name is Maria and in other it is Constance. I like to ask Mr. O'Carroll how that happened.

Family lore.......2005-11-11
A fascinating book, especially since I'm connected to the family: Mammy Jane's son Newt Jarvis married my grandfather's sister, Stella Douglas. I met them when I was a kid. My dad used to tell me about an old woman who'd yell "Who's boy air you?" when she spotted him walking to the store. It was Mammy Jane.
Family Ties.......2005-08-27
I have loved this book since I received it as a gift from my grandmother when newly published by my cousin. Mammy is a not so distant relative of mine. I have seemed to have misplaced my hardback copy and ordered a paperback just so that i could read it again and share it with my children.It is not often that you can trace your family's daily history, yet Mammy Jane is our family history and I will cherish it forever.
the legend of mammy jane.......2005-05-14
I rec'd this book in 1996 from my mother, i grew up in Braxton Co W.V. and i do love reading books in that era... It is one of those books that i have read more then once... it truly is one that you do not put down until you are finished and then you are sad when you do finish, because you want to know more.. i would love to know if the Sibyl Pischke has written more in that era.
One, if not the best book i have read.
A wonderful book..........2004-05-21
I finally got the chance to read this increcible book just today. I borrowed it from my boyfriend's grandmother. I normally can't find books that will hold my attention, but this one, I couldn't put it down, from the first page to the last. It was wonderfully written; a kind of book that has all emotions. It actually made me cry in a few places. Anyone who hasn't read this book, its a must. My favorite book was Rebecca by Daphne DuMaurier, but after reading Mammy Jane, its a toss up.
Excellent book........2003-05-22
A great book on history and heritage of the Civil War and what now is West Virginia. Makes you realize what people of that era lived thru and had to do to get by on what they have harvested. Many people take things for granted. It opened my eyes to a whole new world. I would definitley recommend this book to anyone.

Product Description
"San Francisco has always been noted for its colorful characters, but it is doubtful if even that marvelous city has ever produced another as bizarre as Mary Ellen Pleasant, born a slave in Georgia, who passed as a white. As Mammy Pleasant she became one of San Francisco's legendary figures. Immune to the law, she controlled finances and politics, and exercised enormous influence over many of the city's most eminent citizens. Whether she was a saint risking her life and fortune to free slaves - or sinner, running the nefarious House of Evil on Octavia Street, has long been debated."
"The question is definitely settled in Helen Holdredge's fine book. This is an extraordinary account of the career of an incredible woman."
- The Saturday Review
Book Description
Passionately written and supported with detailed evidence, From Mammy to Miss America and Beyond discusses how stereotypes of Black women, generated by American society's most powerful institutions, have contributed to their continuing oppression. K. Sue Jewell examines how the media and government policy makers generated and promoted Mammy and Aunt Jemima images of African-American women. She also focuses on the resurgence of the "bad black girl image" in the 1970's, culminating in the controversy surrounding the first African-American Miss America, Vanessa Williams.
Book Description
This classic study of black images in American motion pictures, this year enjoys its thirtieth anniversary of continuous publication through four editions, and is now available in a special hardcover gift edition, having sold over 200,000 copies in paperback. Identical to the new student-edition paperback (fall 2001), this one includes the entire 20th century through black images in film, from the silent era to the unequaled rise of the new African American cinema and stars of today. Bogle's book and work have had an unparalleled impact on students of film as well as the filmmakers and actors themselves. From The Birth of a Nation, Gone with the Wind, and Carmen Jones to Shaft, Do the Right Thing, Waiting to Exhale, The Hurricane, and Bamboozled, Donald Bogle reveals the way the image of blacks in American cinema has changed - and also the shocking way in which it has often remained the same.

Politically Incorrect Title hides masterful intro to rich history of Negroes in Film.......2006-12-10
Have you ever seen Green Pastures, or Hallelujiah, or any of the other Studio made films of the Golden Age that feature all black casts?
I have.
Have you ever seen any of the Independent Films with all black casts made during the same period, but only seen in theatres catering to black audiences?
I have, sadly, not.
This book opened my eyes.
Forget the familiar actors of the 80's to the present day, even the great ones, this book will open your eyes to the rich heritage of black actors, and film, between 1955 and 1975, but more importantly it will reveal to you the complicated, yet glorious, world of these films, and actors, in the Golden Age of film.
If you belong to Netflix, or some other similar service then search out the films, and actors mentioned here if they are available and rent their films.
You will not be disappointed.
Do Justice.......2006-02-09
I strongly encourage the true depiction of all early cinematic protrayals of African-Americans, and other non-white categories as they were. We have to let our younger generations of future stars know that some roles have a negative effect and dont show us "Do Justice". This is why we need more Cinematic Historians and Oscar Micheax & Spike Lee role models...

One of the Best Books I have read.......2005-11-14
This is perhaps the GREATEST book accounting the plight of Blacks in film. I read this book for a class titled "Blacks in the Electronic Media" during undergrad. After reading this book and watching television, I honestly felt as if I were let out of the "Matrix." To this day, I can not watch television and not be critical of whats being aired. These charatcters are very visible today at this very moment. If you want a deep experience and to fully understand whats on the television and the movie screen, BUY THIS BOOK!
Bogle is the mole! Why not add the "n" word to that title?.......2003-11-13
Bigoted and racist title for a book about talented blacks, their deserving of a more honorable title since they were called these racist nicknames all their lives and had to be these stereotypes to show their talent, but he can get away with naming a book as he has this one because he's Black, I'm sure if a white did the same, the NAACP will jump on him. Bogle suppose to lift Blacks up not put them down.
Here's a long but informative review!
Naturally since Bogle is the only one writing about early Black film stars people believe everything he says. He plays it safe by always talking about the same ole' stars that he talked about in his last books. Never does he introduce the public to unsung talents we never heard of. He spends most of the time talking about how mulatto, how light or how dark such and such is and how such and such couldn't do this or that because of this or that. When whites write on their stars they don't write about how blonde, how brunette or how red head someone was and how Irish or Italian one looked. Which proves how stuck on skin color Blacks really are! Why do Blacks feel they always have to spend time talking about race instead of giving these stars their recognition and due, forgetting how they look and telling of their life and versatile careers, who they really were, where they come from, making one reading feel like they knew the person all their lives, make one feel the happiness and sadness.
Bogle spends more time on what they didn't do then what they did do. Which is sad, the public is missing out on a lot. So again, do for yourself the research and don't' depend on others all the time.
Bogle loves talking about how white Fredi Washington looked instead of writing about her extensive, incredible career, she done more in her life then most of us could dream about it, she didn't let others prejudices hold her back. She was no tragic mulatto, another stupid name, minus well call Stepin Fetchit a tragic ni**er which he wasn't, he was the first black millionaire and no more of a stereotype then Black pimps, gangsters of today who are getting rich off of it like Step got rich off of his stereotype. Fredi will be the first to say she had a great life and career. She wasn't sad or confused but a strong black woman. Bogle is no better than a white writer who puts down a black but thinks its okay to coin a book Toms, Coons, Mulattoes, Mammies and Bucks because he's black, I'm sure if a white titled a book that we be yelling racism, don't Black talents deserve a better title?
Bogle also plays it safe by always talking about Lena Horne and Dorothy Dandridge, never telling the stories and never giving recognition to other black actresses like Nina Mae McKinney, Mildred Washington, Theresa Harris, Fredi Washington, Edna Mae Harris, Florence O'Brien, Louise Franklin, Daisy Bufford, Jeni LeGon Evelyn Preer, Suzette Harbin, Hilda Simms, Francine Everett, Shirley Haven and countless of others who had a chance to display their talents on the screen in Hollywood and helped fight discrimination and help in the enhancement and betterment of blacks on screen but he gives all the credit to Horne and Dandridge, who didn't do as much as others if you want to get down to the truth, but I'm glad he don't talk about them in a way because he'll butcher up their life stories, I'll give them their due though. Many aren't remembered because maybe they didn't do as much, who cares about who has done more, were suppose to be remembering them for accomplishments and talents, right? White film historians sure remember all their stars, little or big. Someone like Louise Brooks, considered a early Hollywood icon is highly regarded as a great actress despite she only had a few good films and wasnt a big movie star. The woman is more remembered for one good film and a bobbed hairstyle but white historians will make sure you know her, her achievements and what she DID DO for the film industry. Why can't Bogle be like that instead of criticizing everyone and judging them by white people's standards of what success and beauty is? I guess it's true that you gotta work twice as hard as whites to be someone in this world, whites can be remembered for little things, few successes, Blacks gotta have many successes to get rememberance and recognition even for other Blacks to remember them. Bogle is one of the few black film historians, you would think he would write more positively of blacks in Hollywood but he treats many worse then whites treated them when they were alive. Bogle never mentions Willie Covan and Marie Bryant (and appeared in movies also and was a good friend of Lena Horne's too) who choreograhed many white stars, they were behind the scenes but contributed to Hollywood. He suppose to be giving credit not taking away. Either Bogle is too lazy or likes to show favoritism because he sure won't tell other unsung talents stories. If he does he clutter it up with talking about their looks especially if he doesn't know how to write about them. Bogle knows nothing about the great career of Nina Mae McKinney, the first movie star of Hollywood and Europe, who done more films then any other black actress of her time, the first to appear on many magazines, she had so many achievements, yet he gives her one little page, if you don't know about a person, I rather you not write about them at all then to write lies. He never talks about the Black Cinema independent movie stars or the industry who was apart of American cinema, I guess their too hard for him to research, so he takes the easy path in writing about stars he already wrote about a million times. He never writes about Ethel Moses, Francine Everett, Dorothy Van Engle, Edna Mae Harris, Margaret Whitten, Tomiwitta Moore, Bee Freeman, Lorenzo Tucker, Monte Hawley, Ralph Cooper (created the first black studio in Hollywood), Oscar Micheaux, Spencer Williams and countless other black movie stars who appeared in films for blacks made by blacks in the 30's and 40's, I guess that's too mediocre for him but they done more for the enhancement of Blacks in movies by creating their own images, own roles, own portrayals, playing people from all walks of life unlike ones in Hollywood who were stuck playing the same types of roles and being the same images he always complaining about well I feel give due to ones who at least tried to do for themselves and become what they wanted but see they weren't cross-overs so their looked at as non-important by some which kind of dictated by whites who we should remembered and who's important. It's hard researching Black Cinema stars but boy it's worth it plus studying them, watching them perform gives you a good idea of who they were even if you can't find info on them. I still find the time to give them due and I'm no professional or anything but Bogle is a high class guy who only likes to write about Hollywood and his favorite gals Horne and Dandridge.
Ive done more research on unsung, forgotten stars then he has and it has been pleasurable teaching others on the net about blacks who contributed to stage and screen, stars who were just as important as Dandridge and Horne. I'm glad there are other people who are taking it upon themselves to tell the true stories of many unsung black legends and don't write in the same fashion as Bogle. Anyone who is hung up on skin color and don't want to think outside the box and like to hear the same stories then Bogle is for you but someone like me who researched many early black stars of stage and screen on my own and found out the real deal, found how they really were, found how they were really looked at, and found the true stories wouldn't appreciate Bogle's work much. I've talked with some legendary Blacks of the early years, some of their relatives also and they gave a completely different view then how Bogle describes them which shows he just goes by hearsay and documents and don't do accurate interviewing and researching.
I would think Bogle would spend more time on talking about the beauty of black women from dark to light and their wonderful achievements to the world. Black women are quite unique but instead Bogle tells the story of black women from white people's perspective it seems, he tells how black women were looked at from whites perspective not from a true black person's perspective that has pride for his race, maybe Bogle has a white person's way of thinking who is partial. Because I would commend these women, embrace and make the world embrace their beauty, courage, and talents; their many gifts to the world isn't as nearly written about as their skin tones are.
He loves spending time writing about how light, dark or mulatto someone looks. Again, he makes it seem like such and such suffered because she was mulatto, light or dark, come on man, if she had a tragic life it was her own fault if she suffered. He makes it seem like color and race was the problem for everything which is false, actually many of these women profited from the race sometimes and plus women in general face discrimination, no matter what race or color. Don't you think these women went through enough being judged by skin tone or looks, they wished in their life for being to judge their talent, at least give them that now, Bogle doesn't. Who isn't discriminated against in this world? Bogle makes it look like Black is a curse when these female performers change the world and introduce the world to their greatness and the greatness of the race. He loves talking about whether someone should of passed for white or not like when he's talking about the great Fredi Washington. He misses out on showcasing other great talents like Valaida Snow, Blanche Calloway, Una Mae Carlisle, Eunice Wilson, Adelaide Hall and others but that's okay because they have been written beautifully about by other writers. Well, many are dead so they cant stick up for themselves and Bogle takes advantage of that, he hasn't even interviewed or actually talked to ones who he writes about, he just goes by hearsay. Have your favorites but when you write a book, you can't show favoritism which he does all through which hurts others who has a story to tell but he only give honor to his faves. It seems no black can make him happy, he always has something to criticize. In his words every Black woman is a tragic, confused mulatto and every black man is a coon, or some other stereotype, he wouldn't say that to the young black guys or gals in entertainment today though, he takes advantage of the dead who can't stick up for themselves.
There is a website on unsung black talents of stage and screen, you all will enjoy.

It's a history of African Americans in films.......2003-04-25
This book is very interesting and valuable. Mr. Bogle is one of the authorities on African Americans in films. He put a lot of examples in his book. Toms, Coons, Mulattoes, Mammies, and Bucks, all images in American films, are history of the race and culture in the U.S.

While there are some valid points made in this book, the one thing that completely destroyed any validity it might have had was the author equating "Gremlins" to racist propaganda.
