Book review: Creedon’s childhood set him up well to become Ireland’s most charming man

'This Boy's Heart' is so filled with joy, happiness, and almost relentless wonder that a reader will inevitably wonder if John Creedon wore rose-tinted glasses as he wrote

John Creedon’s memoir is almost an anti-‘Angela’s Ashes’, as it is filled with joy, happiness, and almost relentless wonder.
