A witty memoir that weaves an authentic comingofage tale into a bold portrait of New Yorks workingclass women.Fifthgeneration New Yorker, thirdgeneration bartender, and firstgeneration author Tara Clancy was raised in three wildly divergent homes: a converted boat shed in working class Queens, a geriatric commune of feisty, Brooklynborn Italians, and a sprawling Hamptons estate she visited every other weekend. This childhood triptych comes to life in The Clancys of Queens, an electric, oneofakind memoir.From scheming and gambling with her forceofnature grandmother, to brawling with elevenyearold girls on the concrete recess battle yard of MS 172, to hours lounging on Adirondack chairs beside an immaculate croquet lawn, to holding court beside Joey ODirt, Goiter Eddy, and Roger the Dodger at her Dads local bar, Tara leapfrogs across these varied spheres, delivering stories from each world with originality, grit, and outrageous humor.But The Clancys of Queens is not merely an authentic comingofage tale or a rowdy barstool biography. Chockfull of characters who escape the popular imaginings of this city, it offers a bold portrait of real people, people whose stories are largely absent from our shelves. Most crucially, it capturesin inimitable prosethe rarelyheard voices of New Yorks workingclass women.With a light touch but a hard hit, The Clancys of Queens blends savvy and wit to take us on an unforgettable stratahopping adventure.
