Table of ContentsReviewsVivid details--the unwritten rules of the local saloons, snatches of conversation about sports events, fragments of popular songs, etc.--give the feel of early 1950s Brooklyn. But underneath all this, the book is really about love--17-year-old love, a blend of desire and loneliness, and the pain of a girl's rejection; the shy, worshipful love of a boy for the father who has always been a stranger to him.
