Angela's Ashes
€ 9.95
It is a story of extreme hardship and suffering, in Brooklyn
tenements and Limerick slums - too many children, too little money,
his mother Angela barely coping as his father Malachy's drinking
bouts constantly brings the family to the brink of disaster. It is a
story of courage and survival against apparently overwhelming odds.
Written with the vitality and resonance of a work of
fiction, and with a remarkable absence of sentimentality,
'Angela's Ashes' is imbued on every page with Frank McCourt's
distinctive humour and compassion. Out of terrible circumstances, he
has created a glorious book in the tradition of Ireland's literary
masters, which bears all the marks of a great classic.
The author:
Frank McCourt taught in the New York City public schools for
twenty-seven years, the last seventeen of which were spent at
Stuyvesant High School in Manhattan. After retiring from teaching,
Frank and his brother, Malachy, performed their two-man show, A
Couple of Blaguards, a musical review about their Irish Youth. In
September 1996, Scribner published Frank's childhood memoir, Angela's
Ashes, which spent 117 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list.
After more than sixty-five printings, there are over 2,325,000 copies
in print in North America alone
