Not read the book Angela's Ashes but have seen the film with the great Robert Carlyle, such a powerful story! :(

Hi, the book is far more humurous and gripping than the film, the film was a dissapointment to me as huge chunks of it were left out n some of the best bits too. Have had to buy the book again as wore it out n it was falling to bits! Anna.x

The sequel book is good too. "T'is a Memoir" This about when Frank emigrates to America, joins the Army and although there are some harrowing bits he ends up with a much better life.

His brother Malachy wrote, "A Monk Swimming". His personality is totally different. I think he carried the demons of his childhood with him. He comes across as a likeable rogue.

Anna.

Since I read this I have been singing The Winner Takes It All all afternoon alone in the car :? I love the whole Abba repertoire and have just enjoyed seeing the film "Mamma Mia" on TV. I also love Queen - there was a film about them recently. I love the Beatles and loved all their films.
