Thanks to NetGalley for the copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.
Did Ye Hear Mammy Died? is a memoir in which the author tells us about his mother's death when he was a young boy and growing up as one of eleven! siblings raised by a single father. Memoirs are tricky to review due to the fact they're so deeply personal (and even more so when they discuss grief), but I really enjoyed the way in which Séamas O'Reilly told his story here. It was dry and sometimes hilarious and painted a great picture on who his family is. I read it in one sitting!
