This exquisitely written, coming of age memoir by noted lawyer Cary Lerman takes the reader back to a seemingly more innocent time during the 1950's and 1960's, when choices appeared clearer and dreams more attainable. Growing up in Albany Park, Chicago, on a diet of supportive, working class family and the allure of moving to the Golden State, this memoir explores larger themes we grapple with each day-the accuracy of memory and the role of fate. Weaving together humorous scenes and poignant episodes, the memoir reveals how our reconstructed, fallible memories become pillars of our understanding of ourselves and asks whether the choices we make are guided by the gentle nudges of a greater force or are they simply the outcome of a series of random events. Do we ever really know the difference between a blessing and a curse? Graphic vignettes are punctuated with vivid characters, humor, youthful adventures, giving us gifts of life lessons. Together, they teach us what no one should forget-how the ordinary events in our lives make each human life extraordinary.
