A guided tour of the ethnic enclaves of South Brooklyn - not Spike Lee or Matty Rich’s Brooklyn, but a counterpoint, where the hangers-on continue to ‘do business’ while defending their shrinking borders. Heart of the Old Country offers an honest, unromantic look at Brooklyn’s underclass and the novel’s dark, politically incorrect humour reflects the attitudes of these ‘old-country’ inhabitants with unencumbered truthfulness and deep affection. AVAILABLE NOW
