      Written with humor, this memoir is a tale of extended family in Brooklyn headed by the author's mother, the kind and big-hearted, Vina. The family stories are infused with the author's love of-and knack for foreign language and dialects. The delightful etymology stirs up the melting pot of characters and cultures that is New York City.
