Little Bastards of Yorkville

Artie Miller’S Memoir Is A Charming Look Back At The 1950’S And 60’S As Seen Through The Eyes Of A Young Boy Growing To Maturity In New York’S Yorkville Neighborhood. He And His Rascal Companions Make Mischief For The Adults (Never The Old Women Or Children) Around Them. But Always In Good Fun. “Little Bastards Of Yorkville” Will Appeal To Anyone Who Has Nostalgia For A Vanished New York And Its Multicultural Neighborhoods. Dan Fox Is A Published Composer And Arranger With A Master’S Degree From The Prestigious Manhattan School Of Music. In Miller’S “Little Bastards Of Yorkville” Even Better Than The Merry—Or Occasionally Not—Pranks Recalled Is The Evocation Of Yorkville In The 50’S. This Unrepentant Romp Through A Gone But Not Forgotten Time And Landscape Recalls An Era Of Nyc And Its Ethnic Enclaves Of Working-Class Kids: Their Street Games Their Entertainments And Misadventures Their Tenement Culture And Their Poignant If Sometimes Resentful Excursions Outside The Neighborhood As They Interact With An Institutional And Corporate Manhattan Culture Of The Period. Catch The Authentic Talk And Walk The Walk With A Narrator Still Smitten With A Special Time And Place. —Jack Ostling Vice President For Academic Affairs Emeritus Suny-Nassau
