Synopsis
Frank McCourt, the author of ANGELA'S ASHES and 'TIS, wraps up his trilogy of memoirs with this account of the 30 years he spent teaching in New York public high schools, from his rocky beginning as a young man teaching English in a vocational school to his eventual destination--the rarefied halls of the elite Stuyvesant School. Throughout, McCourt was continually devising clever schemes to catch students' interest (which often succeeded) and fighting against the red tape and stultifying restrictions thrust upon him by school bureaucrats (which often resulted in his being fired).

Publisher's Note
The Pulitzer Prize and National Book Critics Circle Award-winning author of Angela's Ashes describes his coming of age as a teacher, storyteller, and writer, a personal journey during which he spent fifteen years finding his voice in the classroom and came to terms with the undervalued importance of teaching. Simultaneous.

Industry Reviews
"McCourt's many fans will of course love this book, but it also should be mandatory reading for every teacher in America. And it wouldn't hurt some politicians to read it, too." (starred review)
Publishers Weekly (09/12/2005)

"The same dark humor, lyric voice and gift for dialogue [from his two previous books] are apparent here....The teaching profession's loss is the reading public's gain, entirely." (starred review)
Kirkus (09/15/2005)

"Full of gritty specifics, never preachy, often hilarious, McCourt's third book thrusts you right into the hormones-and-catcalls chaos of the classroom--where learning is not just a mystery but a flat-out miracle. Along the way, we get the best self-portrait of a public-school teacher ever written."
Newsweek - Malcolm Jones (11/21/2005)

"Yes, Frank McCourt...has done it again--distilled from the mash of his life a strong and alluring narrative brew....TEACHER MAN is an irresistible valedictory, about a man finding his voice in the classroom, on the page and in his soul."
New York Times Book Review - Ben Yagoda (12/04/2005)

"The last 50 pages of Frank McCourt's third memoir, TEACHER MAN...is as good as writing gets about teaching and learning and finding yourself through writing."
(11/14/2005)
