Book Synopsis
Features an American memoir of growing up in New York with eccentric uncles.

Trade Review
'The pages of this memoir are lit with movingly vivid recollections of friendship and adventure and fierce childhood games, but although there is plenty to enthuse about, the book's real magic lies in its understatedness. Original and memorable' Mail on Sunday 'Reads like a novel ... You may find yourself sitting very quietly, mulling over the marvels of this truly wonderful book' Anne Tyler 'Her description of the feral Diana is one of the best child portraits I've read in its balance of innocence and corruption, play and manipulation ... This book is hot; it beats with the authentic pulse of childhood ... With verve and tenderness, she takes us there' Daily Telegraph 'So extraordinary, you wonder how she can have held it in reserve ... Shaine Cunningham magics sparkling, sweet-natured comedy in a book that is as rich and multi-textured as fiction' Marie Claire
