My Boy by Philomena Lynott hits No. 1 spot

My Boy, Philomena Lynott's story of her son, Thin Lizzy frontman, Philip Lynott, is at No. 1 in the Non-Fiction Paperback section of the Irish book charts. The book was written with Hot Press' Jackie Hayden.

Over fifteen years after the publication of the original My Boy, Philomena Lynott - the eighty year old Queen of Rock, tells a heart -breaking and profound story that is a must read for all.

This is Philomena's personal story of a deeply affectionate mother-son relationship, as well as a welcome opportunity for her to finally lift from her shoulders the burden of concealment in relation to the rest of her family.

Niall Stokes, Hot Press Editor commented, "We are delighted that My Boy is No. 1 in its category over a decade later. This is an astonishing, deeply moving and ultimately brilliantly inspiring story. I think that it will strike an emotional chord with people throughout the world. Books like this are indeed rare. I am proud to be in a position to publish something of such wonderful and resonant human interest as My Boy."
