    [synopsis] => From acclaimed author Charlie Carillo comes a poignant, darkly funny, coming-of-age story set in the heart of Italian-American Brooklyn, New York, and the heat of one eventful 1960s summer . . .

Ten-year-old Joey Ambrosio has barely begun to grieve his mother's death when his father abruptly uproots him from his sedate suburban Long Island home, and deposits him at his estranged grandparents' house in boisterous East New York. While his dad takes off on an indefinite road trip, Joey is left to navigate unfamiliar terrain. Besides his gruff Italian grandparents, there's his teenage Uncle Vic, a baseball star obsessed with the music of Frank Sinatra; a steady diet of soulful, hearty foods he's never tasted, and a community teeming with life, from endless gossip and arguments to curse-laden stickball games under the elevated train. It's a world where privacy doesn't exist and there's no time to feel sorry for yourself. Most of all, it's where Joey learns not only how to fight, and how to heal, but how to love-and ultimately, how to forgive.
