Frank McCourt’s sad, funny, bittersweet memoir of growing up in New York in the 30s and in Ireland in the 40s. 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 threaten disaster upon the family. It is a story of courage and survival against truly overwhelming odds. Out of terrible circumstances, Frank McCourt has created a remarkable book in the tradition of Ireland’s literary masters, which bears all the markers of a great classic.
