We Made It, Kid

A triumphant story of achievement in a world made for men!' - Katriona O'Sullivan, author of PoorJackie McCarthy O'Brien has led a truly remarkable life, from being born in 1961 to an Irish mother and Jamaican father (whom she never met) in Birmingham to growing up in Limerick.

Jackie McCarthy O'Brien a avut o viata cu adevarat remarcabila, de la nasterea sa in 1961, din mama irlandeza si tata jamaican (pe care nu l-a cunoscut niciodata), in Birmingham, pana la copilaria sa in Limerick. In adolescenta, a excelat la sport si a jucat pentru Irlanda la fotbal, dar cand a fost hartuita sexual de un antrenor, a trecut la echipa de rugby a Irlandei.
