The Bronx Years - Paperback
by Christine Baldino O'Hanlon (Author)
Christine's is a new and generous voice. In The Bronx Years, she recalls her rebellion growing up in a traditional, Italian-American family in the Bronx, New York. The poems examine her relatives - with humor and honesty - and ask, what do we choose to inherit?
The poem at the heart of the collection, The Truth About Skating, won Honorable Mention for the Allen Ginsburg Award. Her work appears in The Paterson Literary Review, Voices in Italian-Americana, and in the anthology, Rumors, Secrets & Lies.
The Bronx Years is filled with vitalità, writes Nathalie Handal (Life in a Country Album, the Republics). This collection poses fundamental questions about the immigrant experience: What are ancestors? Who are we meant to become?
The Bronx Years is the quintessential American story, writes Matthew Lippman (Mesmerizingly Sadly Beautiful). Christine is a master poet of the heart and the head, of the street and the wide-open spaces of family, love and hope.
