Brighton Beach Memoirs by Neil Simon (English) Paperback Book

Description: Brighton Beach Memoirs by Neil Simon Meet Eugene Jerome and his family, fighting the hard times and sometimes each other—with laughter, tears, and love. It is 1937 in Brooklyn during the heart of the Depression. Fifteen-year-old Eugene Jerome lives in Brighton Beach with his family. He is witty, perceptive, obsessed with sex, and forever fantasizing his baseball-diamond triumphs as star pitcher for the New York Yankees. As our guide through his "memoirs," Eugene takes us through a series of trenchant observations and insights that show his family meeting life's challenges with pride, spirit, and a marvelous sense of humor. But as World War II looms ever closer, Eugene sees his own innocence slipping away as the first important era of his life ends—and a new one begins. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Back Cover "Robert Lipkin does more than provide a provocative and important account of constitutional change. He brings to his work the rigor of an analytic philosopher, the energy and joy of a renaissance reader, and the rare treat of a pragmatic postmodernist who writes with both clarity and flair. Anyone who seeks to understand our Constitution will want to read this book."-Steven Shiffrin, Cornell University Author Biography Neil Simon splits his time between New York and Los Angeles. He is currently at work on -- what else? -- a new play.
