Grace Street is about children growing up in a Lebanese
neighborhood in Michigan City, Indiana, during the 1950s. Children
in that era were safe to walk city streets and explore parks and
wooded areas. Racial prejudice was rampant, and most families had
stay-at-home mothers. The South Shore Railroad was in its heyday
and Washington Park was a popular recreation area. With a healthy
dose of humor tempered with a pinch of pathos and a sprinkling of
irony, Grace Street touches on old-world beliefs and customs while
telling the story of siblings and cousins who grew up in a
sometimes confusing ethnic environment. This close-knit family had
a few secrets, including an alcoholic uncle and a grandmother who
was nearly deported, but the parents rarely spoke of these matters,
especially to the children.
