Empty Stockings : A Brooklyn Christmas Tale
MKSbooklady avatar reviewed on + 989 more book reviews


Sad tale (most of it) of a poor family in Brooklyn, the story starts in 1960, with JFK's election, goes through his assassination and the Christmas of 1963. The problem Ihad with the story, was with the several Beatle's references. I think the author got a little ahead of himself. Most Americans didn't know much about the Beatles in November of 1963-but otherwise not a bad book.
