Teacher Man
Frank McCourt
Bestselling Author of Angela's Ashes
From the inside flap:
"From the Pulitzer Prize-winning, bestselling author of "Angela's Ashes and "'Tis", a wonderfully engaging and appealing book about teaching and storytelling, the subjects closest to Frank McCourt's heart.
In "Teacher Man" Frank turns his attention to the subject that he most often talks about in his lectures - teaching: why it's so important, why it's so undervalues. He describes his own coming of age - as a teacher, a storyteller and , ultimately, a writer. He is alternatively humble and mischievous, down-trodden and rebellious. He instinctively identies with the underdog; his sympathies lie more with students than administrators. It takes him almost 15 years to find his voice in the classroom, but what's clear in the thrilling pages of "Teacher Man" is that from the beginning he seized and held his students' attention by telling them memorable stories.
With all the wit, charm, irreverence, and poignancy that made "Angela's Ashes and "''Tis" so universally beloved, Frank McCourt tells his most exhilarating story yet - how he became a writer."
