Förlagets beskrivning
Go Sit On Your Own Stoop! is a collection of hilarious, brutally honest and thought-provoking anecdotes that vividly recapture the omnipresent energy, hair-trigger danger and genuine uniqueness of one man's childhood in Brooklyn, NY, during the seventies and eighties. Author John Khoury transports you to a time when Brooklyn was defined by working class laborers, rampant crime, dirty streets and an inextinguishable character and spirit that was known around the world. Go Sit On Your Own Stoop! is a unique memoir that explores the days before outdoor cafes; family playgrounds and wine bars; when your mother didn't know or care where you were until dinnertime; when fire hydrants were used for cooling off on the hottest summer days; and when neighborhood brownstones were filled with three generations of family. Go Sit on Your Own Stoop! beautifully recalls the shared experiences at the heart of our youth and childhood through the prism of Brooklyn, while captivating you on every page!
