520    Fifth-generation New Yorker, third-generation bartender, 
       and first-generation author Tara Clancy was raised in 
       three wildly divergent homes: a converted boat shed in 
       working-class Queens, a geriatric commune of feisty 
       Brooklyn-born Italians, and a sprawling Hamptons estate 
       she visited every other weekend. From scheming and 
       gambling with her force-of-nature grandmother, to brawling
       with eleven-year-old girls on the concrete recess battle 
       yard of MS 172, to hours lounging on Adirondack chairs 
       next to an immaculate croquet lawn, to holding court 
       beside Joey O'Dirt, Goiter Eddy, and Roger the Dodger at 
       her dad's local bar, Tara leapfrogs across these varied 
       spheres, delivering stories from each world with 
       originality, grit, and outrageous humor. Chock-full of 
       characters who escape the popular imaginings of New York 
       City, it offers a bold portrait of real people, whose 
       stories are largely absent from our shelves. Most 
       crucially, it captures--an inimitable prose--the rarely 
       heard voices of New York's working-class women. --
