Frank McCourt

Sequel to 'Angela's Ashes' (4853). After his heart-rending childhood, the author moved back to post-war New York where he had a number of jobs before qualifying as a teacher. He continues his tale with charm and humour.

Sad, funny and bittersweet memoir of growing up in New York in the 30s and Ireland in the 40s.

This is the third memoir from Frank McCourt and recounts his long years as an English teacher in the high schools of New York.
