Description

In the vibrant, shifting landscape of 1970s Brooklyn, two unlikely friends, Dylan Ebdus and Mingus Rude, navigate the complexities of race, identity, and belonging. Their bond, forged in the heart of a rapidly changing neighborhood, becomes a lens through which to explore the profound impact of their surroundings and the societal forces at play. This sweeping narrative, rich with the author's signature blend of streetwise observation and profound introspection, traces their journey through adolescence and into adulthood. It's a story about the enduring power of friendship, the search for self, and the indelible marks left by the places we call home.
