Customer Reviews of The Alley
Quiet & Beautiful This book is perhaps my favorite of all time--though I am no longer a child, I loved it when I was, and love it still.
It is a quiet little book--events happen, to be sure, but though there is a burglarly, there are no life-and-death situations. It concerns the thoughts and doings of one Connie and her friends and compatriots in the Brooklyn cul-de-sac where she lives.
A fascinating presentation of children as children and as people, dealing with life as it comes to them. Also, a wonderful portrayal of life in a 1940's/50's New York that is long past.
There is a sequel to this book, "The Tunnel of Hugsy Goode." I believe Hugsy appears first in "The Alley."
Truly a classic. A book which reflects and shapes me still, years after I've read it, and each time I reread it.
