About the event


Join Manchester author PJ McKeown for the launch of his book -My Generation: The Memoirs of a Second Generation. Expect an afternoon of nostalgia and 'mirthsery'


PJ McKeown was born the youngest of six children to Irish parents in central Manchester in 1965. He grew up in Cheetham and attended local Catholic primary and grammar schools. Like millions of other people worldwide he grew up being Irish descent and supporting Manchester United. His experiences and ideas can resonate with very many members of the book buying public.


He has successfully written and presented standup comedy shows, one man plays ,radio sketches, and articles for magazine, newspaper and academic journals.


He has been described as “a handsome version of John Lydon”, “a tall version of Terry Christian.” and as “an anorexic Alexi Sayle”
