Fictional Smoking in an '80s Novel

Readers say they’re enjoying RADIO STARR—yay! Well, except for the cigarette smoking.

I did worry about triggering people like my friend who went “cold turkey” for a New Year resolution. But even in fiction, there should be truth in every sentence and the sad truth is if you worked in radio in the 1980s, you basically were a chimney. Everyone smoked—that’s why we wore so much perfume!

This memoir was a trip back in time and so true to my own experience in radio. The writing is funny and warm. I enjoyed reading what radio was like in the late 1960s and '70s, before I got my start and reliving the culture of when I was a kid listeni ...more

A great late 1950s story set in a NYC housing project about families, teenage gangs, priests, and how a boy is reunited with his father. I could see this being made into a movie. Lots of great characters and emotion.
