This is a great story of growing up poor in Ireland. Large parts of this made me laugh till I cried. However, when McCourt writes about his eye troubles and the (shudder) treatment he experienced, I shrank in my chair and cried ordinary tears. If you want a a book to take you to all extremes of emotion, or if you are at all interested in Ireland, this is the book for you. ( )

As the granddaughter of an Irish immigrant, I loved this. It was fascinating to read about what life was like in the country my grandfather left. ( )

A heartrending memoir of McCourt's early life in Ireland written in a moving and completely unaffected manner. But if I had read this first I wouldn't have chosen the Limerick area for a holiday! ( )

Oh, boy, what a book! Un libro meraviglioso che narra la povertà di un contesto storico e le speranze di una famiglia irlandese. Realistico, a tratti spiritoso e disperato.
Il film che ne è stato tratto è eccezionalmente "fedele" non solo ai contenuti, ma anche alla forma e allo spirito dell'autore. ( )

Angela’s Ashes

History of Limerick

John O'London's Weekly

Bokomtale

Amazon.com (ISBN 0007205236, Paperback)

"Worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable Irish childhood," writes Frank McCourt in Angela's Ashes. "Worse yet is the miserable Irish Catholic childhood." Welcome, then, to the pinnacle of the miserable Irish Catholic childhood. Born in Brooklyn in 1930 to recent Irish immigrants Malachy and Angela McCourt, Frank grew up in Limerick after his parents returned to Ireland because of poor prospects in America. It turns out that prospects weren't so great back in the old country either--not with Malachy for a father. A chronically unemployed and nearly unemployable alcoholic, he appears to be the model on which many of our more insulting cliches about drunken Irish manhood are based. Mix in abject poverty and frequent death and illness and you have all the makings of a truly difficult early life. Fortunately, in McCourt's able hands it also has all the makings for a compelling memoir.
