The year is 1977. The Bronx is burning. Buildings are crumbling. But in the middle of all that chaos, there’s a kid trying to figure out who he is—caught between his Irish roots and the streets that raised him.
Not every pot of gold is at the end of the rainbow. Sometimes it’s buried in concrete. Discover why readers are celebrating the humor and grit of this semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story, calling it captivating and a powerful narrative driven by well-developed characters.
