Brooklyn Roses - Paperback

by Catherine Gigante-Brown (Author)

Brooklyn Roses, the third and final installment of The El Trilogy, follows the travails and triumphs of that loud, loving Italian-American family from Borough Park. The riveting story picks up more than a dozen years after The Bells of Brooklyn, in the turbulent late 1950s/early 1960s. It weaves an unforgettable tale that encompasses forbidden love, illicit crime, joyous celebrations, heartbreaking tragedies--and the intricacies of life itself. Are we destined to repeat the sins of our fathers or forge a different road? It's all there--beloved new characters, tried-and-true favorites and that captivating combination of folklore, food and family that's become a Gigante-Brown trademark.
