Introduction by Liam Neeson A UNICEF Collection Mothers are
universally regarded as the most influential characters in their
children's lives, an influence that continues long beyond
childhood. In this collection famous daughters and sons recall
their own mothers, in prose and in verse, paying tribute to the
strength of their love, remembering favourite childhood moments,
and presenting characters as diverse in their personalities and
interests as their more famous sons and daughters. Among the 57
contributors are: novelists Frank McCourt, Maeve Binchy and Edna
O'Brien, milliner Phillip Treacy and fashion designer John Rocha,
Mo Mowlam, film director John Boorman, President Mary McAleese,
Prime Minister Bertie Ahern, TV cook Darina Allen, Jean Kennedy
Smith, actress Pauline McLynn (Mrs Doyle from Father Ted),
Archbishop Robin Eames, Nobel laureate Seamus Heaney, soccer
supremo Mick McCarthy, comedian Graham Norton, international
newspaper magnate A.J.F O'Reilly. It is a funny, moving, inspiring,
sometimes surprising book that will appeal to everyone. Royalties
go to UNICEF's Mother & Child Fund.
