A memoir of growing up in New York in the 1930s and in Ireland in the 1940s. McCourt tells of extreme hardship and suffering, in Brooklyn tenements and Limerick slums – too many children, too little money, his mother barely coping as his father’s drinking bouts brought the family close to disaster.
