Product Information
Angela's Ashes , imbued on every page with Frank McCourt's astounding humor and compassion, is a glorious book that bears all the marks of a classic. "When I look back on my childhood I wonder how I managed to survive at all. It was, of course, a miserable childhood: the happy childhood is hardly worth your while. Worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable Irish childhood, and worse yet is the miserable Irish Catholic childhood." So begins the luminous memoir of Frank McCourt, born in Depression-era Brooklyn to recent Irish immigrants and raised in the slums of Limerick, Ireland. Frank's mother, Angela, has no money to feed the children since Frank's father, Malachy, rarely works, and when he does he drinks his wages. Yet Malachy -- exasperating, irresponsible and beguiling-- does nurture in Frank an appetite for the one thing he can provide: a story. Frank lives for his father's tales of Cuchulain, who saved Ireland, and of the Angel on the Seventh Step, who brings his mother babies. Perhaps it is story that accounts for Frank's survival. Wearing rags for diapers, begging a pig's head for Christmas dinner and gathering coal from the roadside to light a fire, Frank endures poverty, near-starvation and the casual cruelty of relatives and neighbors--yet lives to tell his tale with eloquence, exuberance and remarkable forgiveness.

- _***r (19)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Último añoCompra verificadaA+ Seller. Received a great offer and snapped it up. The book arrived with more of it complete than I anticipated! The book was in excellent condition as well. The only comments I have was that the book was put in a bubble wrap instead of USPS Media mail. The bubble wrap tends to dog ear books and doesn't protect as well as Media Mail. Also, there wasn't any description or much pictures of the book so I had to ask the seller for details. To their credit, they answered swiftly and with pictures.Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, 2nd Edition: Al-Qadim Ser.: Volo's Guide to... (#176390363656)
