Sequel to Angela's Ashes. I wasted no time reading this after I finished Angela's Ashes. It continues on in America in his adult life, and the writing continues to be engaging, wryly funny and a great read! Which is amazing when the subject matter is not always uplifting, but the author always uplifts with his writing. He's a late bloomer who wrote his first bestseller in his 60s, surprising himself as he'd only hoped it'd be a modest seller, a little memoir for his grandchildren. I guess everyone knows Frank McCourt by now.
