My Pomonok: Growing Up in a Queens Ny Housing Project Andrew Gordon

My Pomonok is a personal memoir of growing up in a Queens NY housing project during the 1950s and 1960s. It was a time before video games, personal computers, and smart phones, when the concept of a play date was unheard of, with always enough kids downstairs in your court for a choose-up game of punch ball or football, or just a one-on-one game of stoop ball or skelly. It was a paradise for kids, but far from Leave it Beaver or Father Knows Best.
