When we last saw Malachy McCourt in 1963, he was lost, his family gone, his life in chaos. In Singing My Him Song, Malachy shares his new adventures and a career that took him to radio, television, movies, and politics. He meets Diana, the woman who has remained his wife and partner to this day. He battles and ultimately triumphs over the bottle. He explores a spirituality that leads him to become a real father and a real son; he was there for his children as they grew, and he was there for his mother, Angela, in her final days, in a way he couldn't have been before. And he confronts his own mortality when he is diagnosed with cancer in 1998. Darkly comic with his ever-inventive use of language, Singing My Him Song rounds out an uncommon life of "a master raconteur" (Houston Chronicle).
