A Guy from Brooklyn

About the Book

Like the acclaimed television series, The Sopranos, A Guy from Brooklyn offers a keen insight into the complexity of human nature. Unlike the mafia Don, however, Guy Lorenzo’s life-defining journey leads him from the tough Brooklyn streets to the hallowed halls of academia. While reminiscent of the great European novels of development, A Guy from Brooklyn is pure Americana, often simultaneously solemn and hilarious, and always thought provoking.
