A Kid from Marlboro Road
An Irish-American family comes to life through the eyes of a 12-year-old boy in this debut novel, the first in a trilogy, by actor-filmmaker Ed Burns. *Now in paperback*
“[A] bittersweet debut . . . Burns’s coming-of-age story suggests a Long Island version of Nick Adams.” —Publishers Weekly
"A vivid snapshot of a time that’s already receding into the distant past—a tender-hearted complement to the Irish-American stories that Burns captures in his films." —The Guardian
