Book ID/图书代码： 01240005B03260

English Summary/英文概要： THE BONFIRE OF THE VANITIES meets KAATERSKILL FALLS on the Lower East Side in this debut novel with an unforgettable cast of characters from New York Times bestselling author Mark Kurlansky (1968, COD, SALT, THE WHITE MAN IN THE TREE). A vivid, funny, exuberantly textured novel about the tight-knit, ethnically diverse Lower East Side neighborhood of the 1980s on the brink of change. A comedy of cultures about the new and the old, Latinos, Jews, Sicilians, and Germans, BOOGALOO ON SECOND AVENUE is about struggling to hold onto life in a rapidly changing world, about food and sex, and about how our lives are shaped by both love and guilt. Kurlansky’s books have appeared on the New York Times, Denver Post, San Francisco Chronicle, The Washington Post, Boston Globe, Toronto Globe and Mail, and the Los Angeles Times bestseller lists. "Mark Kurlansky writes with a quirky verve that makes his books as entertaining as they are enlightening." -- The Boston Globe. We have several books under contract, the fourth book is a fabulous collection of somewhat interconnected short stories all concerning people’s relationship with food, titled EDIBLE STORIES that we will publish in hardcover in June 2006.
