IND READING- Trip to America, Prompt # 7, Chapter #17


My predictions from the previous chapters have come true. Frank earns enough money in order to sail to America and live his father's dream. This boat ride took him three years to accumulate enough money to sail on. He achieved this mass of money by saving the money from a post office job and writing letters for the ill. Although he regrets leaving his family and especially his mother, he looks upon New York's great lights. The memoir ends in his astonishment of these lights.

Angela's Ashes allowed me to infer that Frank found an opportunity in a writing a book because Angela's Ashes was created.
