I love Brooklyn. And I don’t think it’s only because I was born and raised there. Now, in middle-age, I appreciate it more than ever. I wish I still lived there but ... that’s a whole story of its own! The idea of this novel appealed to me because it would allow me to write about a place I knew and loved well, and also about the wonderful people I have known who lived there. Brooklyn itself is a ＂character＂ in this book. There is a place for everyone in Brooklyn, and everyone seems to make their way there eventually!
