A very special gift: the audiobooks of both Angela's Ashes and 'Tis, superbly and attractively republished for this special gift edition. 'The reader of this stunning memoir can only hope that Mr McCourt will set down the story of his subsequent adventures in America in another book. Angela's Ashes is so good it deserves a sequel.' MICHIKO KAKUTANI, New York Times Angela's Ashes was a publishing phenomenon. Frank McCourt's critically acclaimed, lyrical memoir of his impoverished Limerick childhood won the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Critics' Circle Award, the Royal Society of Literature Award and the Los Angeles Times Award amongst others, and rapidly became a word-of-mouth bestseller topping all charts worldwide for over two years.

Set during the Great Depression in the 1930's-40's, where Frank lived in New York with his parents (Angela and Malachy) and four younger siblings: Malachy, Oliver, Eugene and Margret, who died shortly after her birth. The family was struggling to survive and ended up having to move back to Ireland. I boo-hooed through the whole book. This man can sure write a story! ( )

Oh my. My love for nonfiction begins in earnest. And now I understand a bit of my own father's experience growing up in Northern Ireland at about the same time. ( )

Many of the negative reviews seem to want the author to be more uplifting about the crippling poverty and ignorant cruelty and I agree. Ditto for Dickens who never saw a homeless waif he didn't think deserved a cookie. ( )

Heartbreaking yet hopeful. Beautifully written. Paints a vivid picture of a time and place. ( )

I cried, and I cried and I cried. Very moving book indeed. ( )
