"Angela's Ashes" IRB (intro 2)

For my second independent reading book I chose Angela's Ashes. This book is a memoir of the author Frank McCourt. It tells various stories of McCourt's impoverished childhood, as well as, part of his adulthood living in Brooklyn, New York and Limerick, Ireland. Diving into his life, McCourt includes the struggles he faced with poverty and his father's drinking. I found this book at my house and automatically found it intriguing.
