A glowing review for H.A. Hargreaves short story collection, Growing Up Bronx, on LibraryThing.

Available at Amazon

Deceptively simple writing weaves the reader in to stories of the author’s early years in the Bronx. Characters are drawn with clean, deft stokes that bring a remarkable cast to life as richly full, complex, almost heart-breakingly real people, just as their influence mapped out the makings of the author. Hargreaves’ encompassing settings and spare, clear language transport the reader to a time and place that are no more, and we are improved by the journey. ( )
