Description: In the summer of 1978, and Samantha Bonti is fifteen years old, half Jewish and half Italian and lives in Bensonhurst with her mother. Told from the adult perspective, this is a true-to-life novel of leaving the past to history and the future to fate--of restoring hope where there was none, and reaching for dreams in an inspiring promise of paradise called Manhattan.
