Angela’s Ashes by Frank McCourt

《安琪拉的灰烬》以幽默生动的笔法描述了一个贫民窟孩子成长与奋斗的感人经历。面对贫穷、挫折、苦难,作者迈考特则选择以乐观进取的精神与命运抗争,实现了自己的梦想,成为美国青年一代心目中自强奋斗的偶像。

这本书字里行间充满了苦难,但是它不叫人绝望,主人公在成长着,在拼命地吸吮着苦难的乳汁成长。这成长的历程是无坚不摧的。尽管弗兰克与他的兄弟们在物质上非常贫穷,但他们总是很快乐,有很多渴望,很多梦想,很多激情,感觉很富有。令全世界无数读者为之感动。

Frank McCourt’s Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir, movingly read in his own voice, bears all the marks of a classic. Born in Depression-era Brooklyn to Irish immigrant parents, Frank was later raised in the slums of Limerick, Ireland. His mother, Angela, had no money to feed her children since Frank’s father, Malachy, rarely worked, and when he did, he drank his wages. Angela’s Ashes is the story of how Frank endured – wearing shoes repaired with tires, begging for a pig’s head for Christmas dinner, and searching the pubs for his father – a tale he relates with eloquence, exuberance, and remarkable forgiveness.
