‘Life Begins In Leitrim : From Kurdistan to Croke Park’ is Zak Moradi’s autobiography.
The former intercounty hurler tells his story of being born in a refugee camp and how he and his family ended up travelling from Iraq to Carrick-on-Shannon, and then settled in Tallaght.
The book has been nominated in the Best Irish Sports Book category at the 2022 An Post Irish Book Awards, and Zak joined Matt in studio to discuss it.
