This theme was definitely displayed throughout the memoir because Frank started off in one of the worst circumstances. He was a poor catholic irish child, had an alcoholic father, a mother who puts herself first, and he faced starvation. He not only has to deal with being poor but has to deal with being deprived of great opportunities that can help him further his education. The society around him does not seem him as what he is, which is intelligent, they see him as a low class boy. In the memoir, Angela's Ashes, it states “People everywhere brag and whimper about the woes of their early years, but nothing can compare with the Irish version: the poverty; the shiftless loquacious alcoholic father; the pious defeated mother moaning by the fire; pompous priests; bullying schoolmasters; the English and the terrible things they did to us for eight hundred long years” (Frank McCourt, pg.11). Frank had dealt with a tough life as a child but he did not want to live that for the rest of his life and wanted to show everyone that he can become successful. As the book progresses, Frank begins to grow independent and overcome the struggles he had to face as a child. He was a person who would rather starve than beg or owe anyone. He did not let his dignity be deprived from him. Frank was able to maintain a job to get money to go to America and be able to keep up with maintaining an education for himself. Frank was smart, and he did not want to waste it. He showed perseverance throughout his life so he can live the life he wants, which is in America. In the memoir, Angela’s Ashes, it states “Stock your mind, stock your mind. It is your house of treasure and no one in the world can interfere with it. If you won the Irish Sweepstakes and bought a house that needed furniture would you fill it with bits and pieces of rubbish?
