“Set on the streets of an unforgettable and timeless Brooklyn, each and every page of this remarkable story collection rings with an authority that can only come from having lived life fully, both as a participant and as a witness. Written in deeply compelling prose that is as lyrical as it is street-wise, the voice here is suffused with humor, compassion, erudition, and an unapologetic love for its wonderful cast of characters. Gerry Coleman is the real deal, and Ninety-Second Street: Brooklyn Stories is a gem.” - Andre Dubus III
