MANHATTAN BEACH - JENNIFER EGAN ( V.O)

Manhattan Beach takes place in NewYork during the Great Depression and into the World War II.

We meet 12 years old Anna Kerrigan, her father , and Lydia her sister.
Like the family has no money for the wheelchair that Lydia needs, Anna and her father went to a rich gangster home to seek a job.
Manhattan Beach is this home.

What is Eddie and Dexter ( the gangster)'s relationship?

This book was difficult to read.

This book was a slow burner.

I hoped a plot and it did not happen.

I was bored at times.

No emotion.

No action.

No connection.

I was not interested.

I did not love Manhattan Beach.

Apologies!
