Description

In El Bronx Remembered, Nicholasa Mohr brings to life the vibrant streets and people of New York's South Bronx in its heyday. This collection of stories captures the flavor and beat of the area from 1946-1956, offering a glimpse into the lives of those who called it home. From the struggles of everyday life to the hopes and dreams of those seeking a better future, Mohr's tales are infused with the spirit of El Bronx. A young boy must face the challenges of wearing his uncle's orange shoes to graduation, while a new girl in school possesses secrets that set her apart from others. Set against the backdrop of post-war America, El Bronx Remembered is a poignant and powerful portrayal of life in one of New York City's most iconic neighborhoods.
