“As a former leading light in the Legion of Mary and an also-ran for Pope, I can confirm that Maria McErlane is a naughty blasphemer who is destined for the Bad Fire. She is also a national treasure. If you could bottle her spirit, we would all be drinking a case a day by now. Bumps in the Road is completely hilarious — full of priceless insights, brilliant memories, perfect truths and top advice. What a cracking book. It should be given out free on the NHS. Meanwhile, buy it for everybody you love.” Andrew O’Hagan, author of Mayflies
