Summary

Description

In Ireland, Daniel O’Donnell is more than just a singing star: he has reached the status of 'national treasure'. It has been a long journey for the boy from Kincasslagh, County Donegal, and in Living the Dream he tells his story with his customary sense of humour and down-to-earth charm.

Much has happened in Daniel O’Donnell’s life since his first autobiography, Follow Your Dream, and in this new book he reflects on the range of experiences and emotions that accompanied his wife Majella’s battle with cancer; the
death of his beloved mother, Julia; his part in the BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing TV show; and his B&B Road Trip adventures with Majella. And he delves into the relentless touring and recording that took him to the brink of burnout and forced him to reassess his priorities.

Daniel O’Donnell is an international phenomenon – ‘a real star’. His fans will love this latest instalment of his extraordinary life story.

Critic Reviews

“An artist's integrity comes at a price: a price Daniel is still more than willing to pay ... This revised life story, beautifully written with his long-time friend Eddie Rowley, reminds us of the professional and personal achievements of one of the most successful entertainers this country has produced.”

I thoroughly enjoyed this very readable, well written and absorbing book. When he returns to Hobart I will certainly be in the queue to book a seat
