Book Discussion: Tis by Frank McCourt

About the Book:  Tis is the second volume in the autobiography of Frank McCourt. The first volume, Angela’s Ashes, told the story of his boyhood. Tis picks up when McCourt arrives as a young man in New York City after spending most of his childhood in Ireland. He finds the city an imposing and seedy place, made worse by McCourt’s feeling of insecurity and isolation. He seems to be facing a bleak future after surviving several tough years. Even though he paints America as a dark place, McCourt eventually makes his way through, enlisting in the army, getting into college, and landing his first teaching job.
