It is a story of extreme hardship and suffering, in Brooklyn tenements and Limerick slums - too many children, too little money, his mother Angela barely coping as his father Malachy's drinking bouts constantly brought the family to the brink of disaster. It is a story of courage and survival against apparently overwhelming odds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e          \u003cp\u003eWritten with the vitality and resonance of a work of fiction, and a remarkable absence of sentimentality, Angela's Ashes is imbued on every page with Frank McCourt's distinctive humour and compassion. Out of terrible circumstances, he has created a glorious book in the tradition of Ireland's literary masters, which bears all the marks of a great classic.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mccourt, Frank","offers":[{"title":"Good","offer_id":46984217395539,"sku":"XG80006510345","price":3.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"New","offer_id":47665223139667,"sku":"9780006510345","price":9.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/mccourt-frank-frank-mccourt-angela-s-ashes-1997-paperback-54416625598803.jpg?v=1727368870","url":"https:\/\/theirishbookshop.live\/products\/angelas-ashes-1","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
