Book Reviews of A Drinking Life: A Memoir
Book Review: If you've ever lived in Brooklyn, BUY THIS BOOK!
Summary: 5 Stars
Pete Hamill evokes images of a Brooklyn few of us would recognize today. Imagine, upscale Park Slope as a lower-middle class neighborhood. This book is a must-read for anybody who has ever lived in Brooklyn, or its distant, inferior cousin, Manhattan.
Nobody writes a first-person narrative like Pete Hamill. When you finish this book, you realize how much better thing are today...and how much worse, as well.
