A fifteen-year-old boy. His mother left home when he was 3 years old and he was living together with his father. But the father was so busy with his own life and he was not aware of his son. One day he decided to escape from home. He prepared his bag, took some money from his father's valet.
He did not have any idea where to go. He did not have any plan. He just wanted to leave home and live alone in an unknown place, far away from all his relatives and friends. He did not only left home but he also left the school. He was studying at a middle school and he was to finish it because it was compulsory for anyone to finish at least middle school.
This story is an interesting affair for any teenager. Leaving home and school. Packing his suitcase putting some underwear and t-shirts. One hand in the pocket and the suitcase on the shoulder, sun glasses on the eyes... Money enough to live for a few days... Later... No problem... Solutions are to be explored... Experience is to be tested.
I want to travel now in the cells of his brain. What kind of expectations or which reason is to be handled as the key word of this travel desire... leaving all his life behind, for a new but an unknown life considering that on that time he was only fifteen years old. No mother. No brother and sister. Father, yes, but just a name, he was outside of this sight, busy with his job, not aware of his son, even he was at home or not he never thinks...
He generates his own wish to travel with his bag as a companion. Why? How does a human, a teenager feed his wishes for such a travel?
This is the question
Videos are really much more fun than books. There is not enough detail and it is all too repetitive. Simon's cat wants food from everyone. Now I think these books are just published to make money. If I didn't find a free pdf, I certainly wouldn't have looked. See if you find it, but frankly it's not worth buying.

Videolar gerçekten kitaplardan çok daha eğlenceli. Yeterli detay yok ve hepsi çok tekrarlı. Simon'ın kedisi herkesten yiyecek istiyor. Artık bu kitapların yalnızca para kazanmak amacıyla basıldığını düşünüyorum. Ücretsiz pdf bulmasam kesinlikle bakmazdım. Eğer bulursanız bakın, ama almaya değmez açıkçası.

Angela's Ashes, Filled with on every page with Frank McCourt's great humour and compassion. This is an excellent book that bears all the marks of a classic.
The only thing I regret is not knowing about this book and Frank Mac Court before. The story is heart breaking but the way it's told is HILARIOUS!!! I couldn't put the book down! I would read on everywhere literally laughing out loud. His sense of humour is over the top. I laughed so bad when trying to picture what he was saying, which happened in every passage I read. I've never read a story this sad, yet very funny. Reading this book brought me so close to McCourt.
So begins the Pulitzer Prize winning memoir of Frank McCourt, born in Depression-era Brooklyn to recent Irish immigrants and raised in the slums of Limerick, Ireland. Frank's mother, Angela, has no money to feed the children since Frank's father, Malachy, rarely works, and when he does he drinks his wages. Yet Malachy-- exasperating, irresponsible and beguiling-- does nurture in Frank an appetite for the one thing he can provide: a story. Frank lives for his father's tales of Cuchulain, who saved Ireland, and of the Angel on the Seventh Step, who brings his mother babies.
Perhaps it is story that accounts for Frank's survival. Wearing rags for diapers, begging a pig's head for Christmas dinner and gathering coal from the roadside to light a fire, Frank endures poverty, near-starvation and the casual cruelty of relatives and neighbours yet lives to tell his tale with eloquence, exuberance and remarkable forgiveness.
This book is written in such a beautiful way with such a free, powerful voice. I will have to read McCourt's other books now to see where they will take me.
Thank you for the wonderful story!
