New York Times Bestseller. Excellent story about the newspaper industry. The story revolves around the lives of the employees of the newspaper. The paper is in Rome and appeals to an International audience, although written in English. The owners of the paper span 3 generations. They are ecentric and interesting.

This an easy listen. Frank McCourt tell his own story of teaching for 30 years in New York's Stuyvesant High School.
He tells of the unmotivated students, and the unorthodox way he he taught these students. Listening to his voice made me appreciate his story in his own words.
