THE RUNAWAY NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER AND AUDIE AWARD WINNER "When I look back on my childhood I wonder how I managed to survive at all. It was, of course, a miserable childhood: the happy childhood is hardly worth your while. Worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable Irish childhood, and worse yet is the miserable Irish Catholic childhood." So begins the luminous memoir of Frank McCourt, born in Depression-era Brooklyn to recent Irish immigrants and raised in the slums of Limerick, Ireland. Frank's mother, Angela, has no money to feed the children since Frank's father, Malachy, rarely works, and when he does he drinks his wages. Yet Malachy does nurture in Frank an appetite for the one thing he can provide: a story. Perhaps it is a story that accounts for Frank's survival. Wearing rags for diapers, begging a pig's head for Christmas dinner, and searching the pubs for his father, Frank endures poverty, near-starvation and the casual cruelty of relatives and neighbors yet lives to tell his tale with eloquence, exuberance and remarkable forgiveness. Imbued with Frank McCourt's astounding humor and compassion -- and movingly read in his own voice -- Angela's Ashes is a glorious audiobook that bears all the marks of a classic.

回来北京后,收拾以前的东西。两大箱子的书。翻翻捡捡,以前觉得珍贵难割舍的,今天看到想都不想就要丢掉。把两箱折腾成一箱,一直没有来得及看的书放在手边。尽尽人事,看完。 这次过年带回家的就是这本《安吉拉的骨灰》。五年前买的吧,以前鼓起勇气看过一次,没有看下去:...
评分这半个月的公交车时间全都交给这本书了,拥挤嘈杂的汽车环境与书中卑微困苦的生活状态对照进行着。看到最后一页时长叹一口气,想起Bob Dylan的歌词“How many roads must a man walk down ,Before you call him a man?” 作者生于一个贫寒的家庭中,拥有不幸的童年。妈妈软弱...
