Description
New York, 1909. A young mother and her little son arrive from Italy by ocean liner to pursue their dream of a better life in America. Their hopes soon suffer a major blow when, in the impoverished New York ghetto where they find themselves among immigrants from around the world, brutal gangsters and their henchmen make the rules. Anyone who wants to survive must follow the established order, unless they possess charisma and an extraordinary gift for imagination. This Czech-language novel takes readers into the emerging worlds of film, radio, Broadway, advertising, skyscrapers and luxury automobiles, and tells a story of great love and the tenacity of a dream that triumphs over harsh reality.
