Description
by Lowell Cohn (Author)
Step onto the stoops of 1950s Flatbush and watch a brilliant, wise-cracking kid grow into one of America's most fearless sports columnists. In Brooklyn Jew, award-winning writer Lowell Cohn (author of Rough Magic and Gloves Off, and a 2022 inductee into the Northern California Jewish Sports Hall of Fame) invites you into 40+ fast-moving, laugh-out-loud, and sometimes heart-stopping stories that trace his journey from pickle barrels and stickball to Stanford lecture halls and Super Bowls.
Cohn writes the way Flatbush kids talk-funny, direct, and unafraid of truth. Every chapter crackles with street-corner wit, bittersweet family lore, and the resilience of a people who turned a Brooklyn "shtetl" into the launchpad for an American life. Whether you're a memoir lover, a sports fan, or simply chasing an unforgettable voice, Brooklyn Jew serves up nostalgia, insight, and hard-earned hope in equal measure. Open these pages and meet the roaring lion inside every underdog.
