Okay, Angela's Ashes had two strikes against it. One - I'm not particularly into Irish literature as a genre, and two - it was a movie. Fairly nor not, I tend to view books that are made into movies with a certain degree of suspicion - but only if I haven't already read and enjoyed the book. Right - mostly not.
But I was at lunch at work and desperate for something to read, and there was Angela's Ashes in the lost & found bin. Can I just tell you? - I couldn't put it down. Frank McCourt blew my socks off.
