A Monk Swimming, by Malachy McCourt and The Glass Castle, by Jeannette Walls

In the memoirs, two authors of Machich McCourt's "The Monk Swimming" and Janet Worth's "Glass Castle" insisted on some form of poverty in childhood. Next, the author has a history of avoiding the problem, and finally McCourt and Walls changed their story to fame and success. Both memoirs are based on the author 's past stories and continue to be the central focus of the entire memoir. Memoirs are stories, subtypes of nonfiction type (literary type list, California Ministry of Education).

Wall, Janet Glass Castle Glass Castle is a memoir of a woman named Janet Worth about her confused childhood and the lives of her brothers and sisters and parents. Her childhood was just ordinary, and the interaction with her father Rex Walls allowed the reader to decide what Rex would be for her. Her children's stories and experiences shape her life as people can not imagine, but her ability to get rid of life's obstacles is truly encouraging. This is a very moving reading, I recommend it to those who are looking for spiritual non-fiction books. - Claire Pain, grade 2019

"I want to write nearly 20 years" (Janet Worth) Wals admitted her hesitancy and motivation in an interview with Rachel Kramer. Walls found that her mother found forging garbage at her party, so she found she wanted to record her mother.
