THE LANDMARK MEMOIR OF A GLOBAL MUSIC ICON SHORTLISTED FOR THE
IRISH BOOK AWARDS 2021 Sinead O'Connor's voice and trademark shaved
head made her famous by the age of twenty-one. Her recording of
Prince's Nothing Compares 2 U made her a global icon. She outraged
millions when she tore up a photograph of Pope John Paul II on
American television. O'Connor was unapologetic and impossible to
ignore, calling out hypocrisy wherever she saw it. She has remained
that way for three decades. Now, in Rememberings, O'Connor tells
her story - the heartache of growing up in a family falling apart;
her early forays into the Dublin music scene; her adventures and
misadventures in the world of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll; the
fulfilment of being a mother; her ongoing spiritual quest - and
through it all, her abiding passion for music. Rememberings is
intimate, replete with candid anecdotes and full of hard-won
insights. It is a unique and remarkable chronicle by a unique and
remarkable artist. 'Inspiring, liberating, hilarious and
fascinating' Irish Times 'Beautifully observed ... lyrical, funny
and anguished' Guardian 'Her voice on the page is as fearless,
riveting and unforgettable as her voice in song. The cadence alone
is hypnotic, her story essential. Rememberings is a must-read'
Michael Stipe 'So good, you'll want to read it twice' Sunday
Independent 'A soul-bearing, brutally honest account of an
extraordinary life' BBC Online 'Tremendous . . . fierce and funny'
