| Summary |
"Few will be able to resist this pacey and fluent sequel ... In post-war New York, McCourt moves through work as a longshoreman, a spell in the army, to night-school, to become a creative-writing teacher encouraging kids to 'write about what you know' - the same policy that has led him to belated international celebrity. McCourt's gift lies not simply in having lived through interesting times, but in having developed his skills as editor and narrator to produce two fine, funny and moving slices of a past that is not simply Ireland's, but everyone's." - back cover |
