"Splitting time between a ramshackle apartment and a lonely hot dog vendor, the observant thirteen-year-old who stands steadily at the center of Here They Come gives lyrical voice to an unforgettable instant--1970s New York, stifling, violent and full of life. Balanced between her enigmatic siblings, detached parents, and a quiet sense of the surreal, she recounts a year of startling moments with dark humor and deadpan resilience."--Publisher's website. Tells the story of a poor family's coming-of-age in 1970s New York. The unnamed 13-year-old narrator describes a world that is populated by idiosyncratic characters like her precocious sisters, suicidal brother, depressed mother, confusedly nostalgic grandmother, and a local hot dog vendor.
