The upside-down world of Jewish gangsters in chaotic 1963 New York - also black, Italian and Chinese - as a bookish Brooklyn kid becomes the unwilling protege of the fearsome hood the tabloids call Shoeshine Cats. A fast-paced, laugh-out-loud look at a time when killers read poetry, sex was revelatory and America still seemed young, innocent and as full of promise as the Kennedys, a Frank Sinatra ballad or the gentle swish of a softly falling negligee.
