About This Item
Synopsis
'Tis is the sequel to Frank McCourt's memoir of his Irish Catholic boyhood, Angela's Ashes. The tale picks up as he reaches America in October 1949, struggling to find his place among the prejudice of the people around him and the alcoholism that rears it's ugly head. The lilting Irish prose stands out in this book against a dark background of constant uphill striving towards some semblance of comfort, acceptance, and contentment.
