In this week’s episode of “Is Kelly Really That Dumb?” (spoiler alert – she is) let’s discuss the fact that she never read Angela’s Ashes because for some reason she thought it was a book about a family in a concentration camp and was never quite in the headspace to tackle it. Then she Googled “funny memoirs” and it popped up, but since it was Reddit I figured some troll was trollin’. Turns out they weren’t (and also this obviously wasn’t anything like I had thought it was about).
The story here is about the McCourt family – who move back across the pond from New York to Ireland since daddy has more than a little problem with keeping a job and not being on the drink – told by Frank. It is somehow both heartbreakingly tragic and laugh-out-loud funny. I listened to it on audio – and be warned it is about 112 million hours long – but it made my walks so much more enjoyable and I was sad when I finished.
