Philomena Lynott and her My Boy - The Philip Lynott Story co-author Jackie Hayden appear tonight, Monday September 5, in County Hall, Dun Laoghaire at 7:30pm as part of the annual Mountains To Sea book festival where they will be interviewed by Newstalk presenter Tom Dunne. The one-time Something Happens man is a huge music buff and the perfect candidate to engage in an intimate interview with My Boy's writers.

Mountains To Sea kicked off on Thursday September 1 and runs until Saturday September 10. Highlights include veteran US novelist Robert Coover delivering The Beckett Address, and readings by Emma Donoghue, Sebastian Barry, Edna O’Brien, Val McDermid, Melvyn Bragg, Christopher Hope and Justin Cartwright.

Tickets priced €10 and €8 (concession) are available here.
