Submit a book review BOOK SYNOPSIS Nearly a decade ago Frank McCourt became an unlikely star when, at the age of sixty-six, he burst onto the literary scene with Angela's Ashes, the Pulitzer Prize winning memoir of his childhood in Limerick, Ireland. Then came 'Tis, his glorious account of his early years in New York. Teacher Man is also an urgent tribute to teachers everywhere. In bold and spirited prose featuring his irreverent wit and heartbreaking honesty, McCourt records the trials, triumphs and surprises he faces in public high schools around New York City. His methods anything but conventional, McCourt creates a lasting impact on his students through imaginative assignments (he instructs one class to write "An Excuse Note from Adam or Eve to God"), singalongs (featuring recipe ingredients as lyrics), and field trips (imagine taking twenty-nine rowdy girls to a movie in Times Square!). McCourt struggles to find his way in the classroom and spends his evenings drinking with writers and dreaming of one day putting his own story to paper. Teacher Man shows McCourt developing his unparalleled ability to tell a great story as, five days a week, five periods per day, he works to gain the attention and respect of unruly, hormonally charged or indifferent adolescents. McCourt's rocky marriage, his failed attempt to get a Ph.D. at Trinity College, Dublin, and his repeated firings due to his propensity to talk back to his superiors ironically lead him to New York's most prestigious school, Stuyvesant High School, where he finally finds a place and a voice. "Doggedness," he says, is "not as glamorous as ambition or talent or intellect or charm, but still the one thing that got me through the days and nights."

McCourt and his family endured years of poverty, illness, and malnutrition in Ireland. When McCourt was 19, he moved back to New York City and was quickly drafted into the military to fight in Germany during World War II. Afterwards, he used the G.I.

He died on July 19, 2009, after battling metastatic melanoma. He was 78. Mr. McCourt, who had taught in the city's school system for nearly 30 years, had always told his writing students that they were their own best material. In his mid-60s, he decided to take his own advice, sitting down to commit his childhood memories to paper and producing what he described as "a modest book, modestly written." skos:inScheme http://data.nytimes.com/elements/nytd_per skos:prefLabel - en McCourt, Frank http://data.nytimes.com/N81915026908891043773.rdf cc:attributionName The New York Times Company cc:attributionURL http://data.nytimes.com/N81915026908891043773 cc:license http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/us/ ... dc:creator The New York Times Company dcterms:created dcterms:modified dcterms:rightsHolder The New York Times Company foaf:primaryTopic http://data.nytimes.com/N81915026908891043773

The big legal guns that is, and it is turning out to be one expensive divorce. The Los Angeles Times reports that Jamie McCourt, the soon to be ex-wife of Frank McCourt, has hired David Boies . Boies is well known as a skilled trial lawyer; especially for his high profile cases such as representing Al Gore before the U.S. Supreme Court after the 2000 presidential election. Boies is also part of the plaintiff lawyer team for the trial challenging Prop. 8 in California. She probably retained Boies because of the complicated issues in her divorce. However, both Jamie McCourt and Boies have declined to comment. We wrote about how the McCourts' divorce has been a messy affair that is riddled with accusations of infidelity, unfair dismissal, and questions surrounding marital assets
