Edward Burns, the writer, director, and star of The Brothers McMullen, joins us to celebrate the release of his debut novel, A Kid From Marlboro Road.
An Irish-American family comes to life through the eyes of a 12-year-old boy in this warm, raucous, and joyous bildungsroman set in 1970s New York. Stories cascade between the prior generation’s colorful origins in the Bronx and Hell's Kitchen, and the softer world of Gibson, the town on Long Island where the family lives now.
"Can a brilliant filmmaker be as good on the page? Yes! Ed Burns delights in the printed word. So wrap yourself around this book and give yourself a warm hug with a good read: A Kid from Marlboro Road."
—Malachy McCourt, author
