Leonard's low-lifes are the best. Isn't there a little of ourselves in all of them?

Indulge in the audio version of this book for the full effect of the dialect and the times.
Mingled with the voices of the talented readers, I hear those of adults from my childhood, struggling with fear, courage, hate, love. I am an eleven-year-old, practicing the piano. The smell is furniture polish as Ruby has paused in her work to show me the right way to play (and sing) the hymn, "His Eye is on the Sparrow."
Too late to thank her now.
