Just finished the book today, went straight to the book store and bought the author's TEACHER book, and two of his brother's books (Malachy McCourt). My heart breaks for his mother, what a definition of self-sacrifice. Cheers to you Frank McCourt.......I have become a fan!

There are some things you need to know before reading this book, and I've made my own Legend for it:
A GOB is a mouth
A FAG is a cigarette
THE CONSUMPTION is some sort of sickness that ends in death.
Another thing I have learned is that my problems are nothing compared to Frank's hellish childhood of poverty and his struggle to find himself.
