Helpful Score: 1
This book was written by the fellow who wrote The Mambo Kings Sing Songs of Love. I don't know if it is really a Christmas tale, even though the holiday certainly happens through it a lot. More, it is a beautifully written, bittersweet tale of a broken families, forgiveness, redemption and to me, wasted lives. It is set in old NYC with a cast of many nationalities. A story of how one quick, unplanned moment, two shots from a gun, will change the entire, long lives of so very many people.
A thing of note, there wasn't a character I didn't like in the entire book.
