Book - Angela's Ashes by Frank McCourt


Some friends told me the book is very good and I've also read some good reviews. But I found it a little slow and it only really picked up three quarters of the way. I had to switch to another book in between to "take a breather".

Maybe because it was rather depressing - their life, their desperation, how they had literally nothing to their name. And especially when you know it's not fiction but a true life account of the author's life. Of course you have to admire his black humor, how he managed to write so candidly about it.
