Frank McCourt BIO Frank McCourt was born in 1931 in Brooklyn, New York, to Irish immigrant parents; grew up in Limerick, Ireland, and returned to America in 1949. For thirty years he taught in various New York City high schools, including Stuyvesant, and in city colleges. He lives with his wife, Ellen, in New York City and Connecticut. INTERVIEW February 19, 1997 BRC: It's a pleasure to have a writer as our guest who is now said to have done for Limerick what Joyce did for Dublin. How can you keep your balance in the face of such an outrageous comparison? FM: How do you know I have kept my balance? I haven't had time to stand back and become an egomaniac. I take humility pills. There is no comparison between Joyce and me. He had a planned approach to his writing. He was an intellectual. I don't have much time for Portrait of an Artist. How would YOU like to spend an evening with Stephen Daedalus? BRC: Do you have the feeling that you waited 30 years for this moment, and that you might as well bloody enjoy it? FM: Oh yeah. Now there is what publishers call "momentum.." Might as well enjoy it. I was haunted by the first book. Now I'm haunted by the second....the miserable 20s. I wasn't equipped to handle America - or women. Poverty robs you of self esteem, and that makes you angry. I always got into fights - drunk or sober. And I had no experience with women - so I got married three times.I like getting letters now. People tell me it helps them with understanding alcoholism....what they call "the Irish problem."

"Angela's Ashes" quickly flew to the top of the New York Times bestseller list and remained there for 115 weeks, selling more than 4 million copies worldwide. The memoir received the 1997 Pulitzer Prize for biography and the LA Times Book Award, along with many others. McCourt then published a sequel to the book in 1999, entitled "'Tis," which continues the story of his life as an immigrant in New York. Born in Depression-era Brooklyn in 1930, McCourt and his family moved to Limerick, Ireland, when he was four. As he recounts in "Angela's Ashes," McCourt spent the next 15 years in poverty. His alcoholic father abandoned the family when McCourt was 12, and his mother, Angela, struggled to hold the family together.

12. McCourt Frank; Angela's Ashes Frank McCourt. Boekgrrls. Angela s Ashes Eindelijk heb ik het dan eens gelezen. En ik heb ervan genoten. Zelfs of misschien vooral van het huilen erbij. http://www.boekgrrls.nl/BgBesprokenBoeken/McCourtF.htm

Frank McCourt Boekgrrls Angela's Ashes: Grappig en aanvankelijk vreemd vond ik de manier waarop Frankie met de verhalen omgaat die zijn vader hem vertelt: het zijn ZIJN verhalen, anderen hebben daar van af te blijven. Zoiets ken ik helemaal niet uit mijn kindertijd. Dacht ik althans. Maar als je niets anders hebt... Ik had speelgoed. Wat mij betreft hield het alleen te snel op. Als ik dan al die ellende van moeder McCourt heb gelezen en om haar verdriet heb gehuild, wil ik eigenlijk ook wel weten hoe het met haar verder ging, en of Frankie zijn vader ooit nog eens gezien heeft. Ik begrijp dat ik daar in ieder geval het boek van Malachy niet voor hoef te lezen. Frankie heeft zijn droom bereikt en is in Amerika gekomen, maar heeft moeder ooit nog iets van geld gezien of heeft hij het net als zijn vader allemaal voor eigen genot aangewend? Het boek is voor mij niet het beste boek van het jaar, het komt zelfs niet in mijn huiskamerboekenkast (de echte favorieten), maar ik heb het met veel plezier vrijwel achter elkaar uitgelezen.

Angela's Ashes Genealogy Book Review AUTHOR: McCourt, Frank ISBN: 0684874350 Compare price for this book Reference Source Genealogy Genealogy Editorial Review from Amazon Angela's Ashes - Book Review, by McCourt, Frank Amazon.com "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 eithernot 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. From School Library Journal From Library Journal The New York Times Book Review, Denis Donoghue
