ReviewsMalcom Jones, Jr. Newsweek It is only the best storyteller who can so beguile his readers that he leaves them wanting more when he's done. With Angela's Ashes, McCourt proves himself one of the very best., Michiko Kakutani The New York Times 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.

  • Book itself was smaller than I expected but memoir is amazing

    Awesome story. Read it in prison. Had to get a copy. Very compelling. Both devastatingly depressing and optimistically hilarious at the same time. A must read.
