Coning of age in the 1980s

Crossing California by Adam Langer

Thanks to "Pearl's Picks" for this book. She recommended this book. I always cringe at the phrase "coming of age", however, this is one of those books. Coming of age in Chicago in the 1980s, being Black or Jewish, mostly Jewish. It is great book. California of course, is a street a dividing line (i.e., the "tracks") between the world of the "haves" and the "have nots".
