Finucane and Me
English
By (author): John Clarke
Marian Finucane was a trailblazing broadcaster, the first to champion womens issues on air, and respected for her fairness, empathy and doggedness. One of a small group of Irish people known simply by their first name, the nation mourned when she died suddenly, aged 69, in January 2020.
But John Clarke, Marians widower, doesnt use her eponymous moniker instead, he calls her Finucane. It highlights the gap between the woman so many felt they knew and the woman he loved the real Marian who was by turns curious, fiery, emotional, stubborn, charming and endlessly excited by life.
When John and Marian first got together, they promised each other that theyd never be boring. What ensued was forty years of conversation and thousands of miles travelled. Finucane & Me is an unexpected love story: the story of two people who made a pact for madness; the story of a never-ending search for meaning; the story of two people who lived life to its fullest.
