The "Kid from the Bronx" is about a young girl's personal journey growing up during the 1940's and into the 1960's in an Italian/American home, in a predominantly Jewish neighborhood. It covers a time period dating as far back as the turn of the century when her Sicilian grandmother and her family immigrated to the US and about the early WWII years, when her father, Pierre, a French/Swiss merchant marine who arrived in New York harbor for shore leave. It is a tale of Italian genealogy and the sacrifices of a strong youngster caring for a dying mother and grandmother.
The story tells about the strong maternal influence and attitudes that guided her life. It is a nostalgic view of simpler, less complicated times growing up in the 1950's; the struggles, triumphs and travails of her life in those years. Its focus is on the neighborhood in the NW section of the Bronx, bordering Woodlawn and Van Cortlandt Park bordering on Yonkers with acres and acres of green space, parks, parkways and playgrounds. The reader, seeking nostalgic or a historical perspective of these times in the Bronx, will be enchanted and entertained by the story of "A Kid From the Bronx."
