rose_peterson 's review for:

Angela's Ashes by Frank McCourt
3.0

I was fascinated by McCourt's ability to recapture the voice and perspective of himself as a youngster; this is really interesting from a writing craft standpoint. I learned a lot about Ireland in the mid 1900s and was heartbroken by the McCourts' realities, too. However, I struggled to get through this book and found it just okay.
