Acerca de esta escucha
A family stitched together by one violent, impulsive act. As the decades-long secret begins to unravel, one Italian American family will have to bear the consequences—and face each other—in this thrilling kitchen sink drama, a southern Brooklyn tragic opera of the highest caliber.
William Boyle is the master of Brooklyn-set crime fiction and Saint of the Narrows Street is his magnum opus.
For fans of The Sopranos, Jonathan Lethem, and Dennis Lehane.
Gravesend, Brooklyn, 1986: Risa Franzone lives in a ground-floor apartment on Saint of the Narrows Street with her bad-seed husband, Saverio, and their eight-month-old baby, Fabrizio. Risa is a loving mother, a faithful wife, a saintly neighbor—but lately, her husband’s slow dive into criminality and abuse has threatened her peace, raising concerns about her and her baby’s safety. On the night her younger sister, Giulia, moves in with Risa to recover from a bad break-up, a fateful accident occurs: Risa, boiled over with anger and fear, strikes a drunk, erratic Sav with a cast-iron pan, killing him on the spot.
The sisters are left with a choice: notify the authorities and make a case for selfdefense, or bury the man’s body and go on with their lives as best they can. In a moment of panic, in the late hours of the night, they call upon Sav’s childhood friend—the sweet, loyal Christopher “Chooch” Gardini—to help them, hoping they can trust him to carry a secret like this.
Over the vast, dramatic expanse of the next eighteen years, life goes on in the working-class Italian neighborhood of Gravesend as Risa, Giulia, and Chooch grapple with the choice they made that night—and each forge a different path when the cracks of a supposedly seamless cover-up begin to reveal themselves.

Historia
Two people meet for lunch in a Manhattan restaurant. She’s an accomplished actress in rehearsals for an upcoming premiere. He’s attractive, troubling, young—young enough to be her son. Who is he to her, and who is she to him? In this compulsively readable, brilliantly constructed novel, two competing narratives unspool, rewriting our understanding of the roles we play every day–partner, parent, creator, muse–and the truths every performance masks, especially from those who think they know us most intimately.

Which leaves him determined to find out what happened to his own father, a brilliant, charismatic professor who disappeared in 1984 when Steve was twelve, on a wave of ignominy.

Historia
In a place and time unknown, two elderly sisters live in a walled garden, secluded from the outside world. Evelyn and Lily have only ever known each other. What was before the garden, they have forgotten; what lies beyond it, they do not know. Each day is spent in languid service to their home: tending the bees, planting the crops, and dutifully following the instructions of the almanac written by their mother. So when a nameless boy is found hiding in the boarded house at the center of their isolated grounds, their once solitary lives are irrevocably disrupted.

Historia
On a fall night in 1954, in working-class Lindenhurst, Long Island, a woman goes alone to a bar filled with German speakers who’ve finished their shifts at different jobs—some at a groundbreaking new project run by a man named Leavitt. They are gathered to listen to the first game of the World Series between the New York Giants and the Cleveland Indians at the Polo Grounds. The game would make the history books because of “The Catch” at the outfield wall by Willie Mays. But Lindenhurst's new chief of police, Paul Beirne, can't think about baseball.

This is a very well written and performed story, but I can’t say I liked it. In fact, there was very little to enjoy in this sordid and heavy tale. It’s very depressing and left me with a hopeless feeling for these characters. It’s realistic, and paints a seedy side of life.It portrays a neighborhood in which young men & some young women succumb to bad behavior and just go down from there, forsaking even their families. However, the three main characters are not evil
people, but with so much badness all around them, the possibility of not being affected by it is very slim.
They made a bad choice out of desperation, fear, and fierce protectiveness that takes their lives down a path of forever being haunted. Their backs were against a wall, they were very young, and they couldn’t see a better way out of the dilemma in which they struggled, although most people probably would not have done what they did. They didn’t act quickly enough in the beginning, and that pushed them into the poor action they took.
I felt extremely sorry for the young woman at the center, and the young man who helps her. They are good people, but in the world in which they lived, it was inevitable that they were doomed for sadness. Life is tough in certain areas. and it’s hard to imagine living with much joy in such a place.
I kept hoping that something would turn up to end the story on a decent note. An epilogue with at least a bit of peaceful
closure would have helped, but under their circumstances, the harsh ending is more probable. At least we could have been provided with the aftermath of the injured person at the end.
Decent people stuck in a terrible situation
