II have never seen the movie, but the book was rather confusing. The grammar, although it was part of Francie's characterization, was actually more confusing than helpful.
Plus, due to Francie's lack of description and excessive slang and denial to his own emotions, half the time you have no idea about what is going on. But the author did do a good job with characterization, and it was a well-written, touching book.
And it was hilarious too. In one part, there was a man who loved Francie but Francie just pretended to like him for Rolos and cigarettes...
Anyway, the kid is sent to boarding school.
He lives in Ireland, he's poor, he hates Mrs. Nugent.
Mrs. Nugent caused his mother to commit suicide. She also called their family the pig family.
The book is by Patrick McCabe and is historical fiction.

Get the rocked in the buttcheeks mug.An amazing, wise, sexy young macho, carrying an axe covered with blood of his fallen victims.The Butcher wanders the cold, gray postapocalyptic world, fighting a zombie army led by a powerful sorcerer, acompanied by his trusty sidekick - Pretty Boy.
The Butcher usually wears a cloak not only to emphasize his orgasmic awesomness, but also to keep himself warm and fuzzy.
Alongside the powerful axe, his deadly arsenal includes a machete and a whipcord made out of his once long hair.
He hates coffee, poetry and insects, but rather enjoys bubblegums, whiskey and long walks.
