About this listen

Andrea Corr’s Barefoot Pilgrimage is a compelling and honest memoir.

In part, an exercise in coming to terms with and making sense of life and mortality following the loss of a beloved father; in part, a reflection on an unlikely journey with her siblings through the music industry; in part, a meditation on family, on music, and on creativity; and, in part, a shout-out for love and for hope.

Illustrated with personal photographs and with original poems interspersed throughout the text, this is a very personal – at times very funny, at times deeply moving – book from an iconic figure in popular music.

Perhaps better to read a physical copy as its quiet a poetic book and I wonder if some of that gets lost when listening, even though it's beautifully read by Andrea Corr.

Always been a Corrs fan and bring Irish this was a real trip down memory lane. Andrea is extremely witty (i was constantly have lol moments i was expecting) and it was also deeply moving and emotional at time..... she has a knack for really putting things into perspective and ultimately being grateful with how everything turned out. loved every second..... beautiful reading voice too, could definitely do more readings.

Emotional, nostalgic and very very funny

I have loved this lady from being a boy, having her speak these words is like a reunion, like how have you been getting on Andrea!

Mummy I think Michael Jackson has got the hiccups.

This is not a book if you want celebrity gossip. It is rather more about a normal family that manages to then make extraordinary music. For much of the book their lives sound so similar to those of normal people. I enjoyed it.

Really enjoyed the book
