Requests:  0 Summary:  This work is the author's memoir of his life, his parents, and the upstate New York town they all struggled variously to escape. Anyone familiar with the author's fiction will recognize Gloversville, New York, once famous for producing that eponymous product and anything else made of leather. This is where the author grew up, the only son of an aspirant mother and a good-time, second-fiddle father who were born into this close-knit community. But by the time of his childhood in the 1950s, prosperity was inexorably being replaced by poverty and illness (often tannery-related), everyone barely scraping by under a very low horizon. A world elsewhere was the dream his mother instilled in Rick, and strived for herself, and their subsequent adventures and tribulations, recounted here, only to prove lifelong, as would Gloversville's fearsome grasp on them both.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 813.54 Russo Ru Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 813.54 Russo Ru Checked In Add Copy to MyList CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library Adult Biography B Russo Ru Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 813.54 Russo Ru Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Biography B Russo Ru Checked In Add Copy to MyList
