I read all 3 of his books and I love it. I bought Angela's ashes from a book sale for P50.00 ( around 1 US dollar ), and I think that is the best buy I ever had. I read it without any expectation and I love love love it. After that I searched for his second book 'tis and when the teacherman was released, I bought it immediately. I think that Angela's ashes is still the best among the 3, and teacherman is the next ( I wanted to be a teacher for the longest time, and his book made me want it even more! )..

I think I have heard of this before but I have never read it. I just do not have the time to read.

The funny thing on this book is that I started reading it a few years back when it first came out, but didn't finish it; Started and finished reading Tis his sequel to Angela's Ashes, and it is only about a month or so ago that I took the time to sit down and read Angela's Ashes in its entirety. And if there was something that taught me something it was this. I am African American and although I have seen some of this world, I also felt we had the corner on poverty, but after reading this book, and more recently Rick Bragg's stories about his and his family life, I know that poverty is a worldwide problem. If I was real close to that father, I'd give him one good beat down;

This sounds like it could be a good book...I take it the book was written by Frank McCourt? I love true stories too...Please let me know more, I want to see if I can get that book here in Australia.

I have read it some time ago. It is remarkable that the he survived. It makes one thankful for what we have. Those poor children to have o go through what they did. But at the same time his mother did all she could for her children with what she had to work with. I haven't read the last two but should get them and read hem. Frank McCourt is a very good writer.
