Kerry football legend Marc Ó Sé will be in Eason, Main Street, this Saturday, (October 18), to sign copies of his new autobiography, Ó Sé: A Kerry Family. A Football Dynasty.

The event begins at 12 noon, giving fans the chance to meet one of Kerry’s most decorated footballers and hear about his new book, which tells the story of his remarkable career and his place within one of the county’s most famous footballing families.
Written with Adrian Russell, the book explores the history and legacy of the Ó Sé dynasty, from the playing days of Marc’s late uncle Páidí, to his brothers Tomás and Darragh, and his own glittering career in the green and gold.
A five-time All-Ireland winner, Marc Ó Sé played a key role in Kerry’s dominance during the 2000s and was widely regarded as one of the finest defenders of his generation.
Ó Sé: A Kerry Family. A Football Dynasty is described as a collection of stories, memories, and insights into both the triumphs and challenges that shaped the Ó Sé family’s football journey.
