Crime in the Neighborhood A Novel

"...'A Crime in the Neighborhood' takes its time telling one girl's story, and in doing so paints a true, rich picture of the slow erosion of illusion that's at the heart of growing up....[T]he young Marsha and her mother are perfectly wrought, portrayed with all the tenderness and bitterness of mothers and daughters. And in her portrayal of a child's difficult progress through the minefield of disillusionment, Berne shows herself to be a writer of deep and delicate perception."Berne, Suzanne is the author of 'Crime in the Neighborhood A Novel' with ISBN 9781565121652 and ISBN 1565121651.
