Consider the following quote from Angela’s Ashes and answer the questions that follow. "When I look back on my childhood I wonde

r how I survived at all. It was, of course, a miserable childhood: the happy childhood is hardly worth your while. Worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable Irish childhood, and worse yet is the miserable Irish Catholic childhood. . . . [N]othing 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." What seems to be the author’s purpose in this passage? If you were to write your own memoir, what would the tone and purpose of it be?

kolezko [41]
Firstly, you should start by saying that is a human right to speak up freely and defen your convictions for changing the world. Wonderful people like, Martin Luther King or The Great Nun Theresa did that their whole lives. Then you should look back in worldwide history and emphasize how things changed through fight against slavery or the Inquisition, or fascism, communism, and now terrorism. Also, humanity would not have been the same unless women fought for their rights.
