No store stamps. --- --- MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD --- On the eve of a carefree summer, Bob and Sheila Beckwith find their loving marriage shattered by a single telephone call and the resurfacing of a truth which must be kept from their two daughters and the young boy visiting for the summer. --- THE OLD NEIGHBORHOOD --- Moving from the corner office to the corner candy store, Steven Robbins is willing to forsake everything he's earned to get back a piece of his past. . . . .Growing up in the Bronx in the 1940s, Steven Robbins was raised on egg creams, baseball stats, and the camaraderie that kept his melting-pot Bronx neighborhood humming during World War II. Robbins aspired to escape his humble roots, and eventually worked his way to Madison Avenue, where he became a hotshot ad man with an enviable wife. But as he pushes 50 and his marriage falls apart, Robbins begins yearning for a deeper happiness. Returning to his old neighborhood in the Bronx, Robbins seeks the simplicity of the life he once fled in the one place where he may ultimately find contentment. . . . .The Old Neighborhood is a warm-hearted novel that shows it is possible to go home again, or to take home with you wherever you go. . .See photos for additional content. . .
