Frank McCourt wrote “Angela’s Ashes” “Tis” and “Teacher Man.” Did you read any or all of them? What did you think? Were they worth reading?

I have read all three & loved his writing. Irish authors are wonderful storytellers….although sometimes they break your heart JMO ??

Reading Angelas ashes at the moment for my book club. Have to remind myself that it’s a true story as it’s so terribly sad the poverty they live in but I’m really enjoying it

Read them all and have read most of his brother’s books. Malachy McCourt. A Monk Swimming is wonderful. If you love Iriish writers, try Brendan O’Carroll. Start with The Mammy. The movie Agnes Brown is based on it.

His youngest brother also writes. I believe his name is Alphie. He did not captivate me.

If not allowed, I apologize and please remove.
