"She could see to the horizon to where the Brooklyn and Manhattan
bridges formed necklaces. So writes Susan Margulies Kalish in The
Cerebral Jukebox, her first collection of poetry. With an astute
eye for the telling detail, she evokes her childhood in Manhattans
Lower East Side. Stuyvesant Town, a middle-class housing
development of a hundred look-alike buildings, became her mid-city
haven during the baby boom that followed World War II. Her favorite
jukebox hits of the Fifties filter through free verse vignettes,
recalling a time of innocence, while the songs of the Sixties echo
the turbulence of her coming of age in a time of great change. In
succeeding sections she celebrates family, travel, and historical
connection, bringing the books jukebox journey full circle.
Complete with the authors illustrations that eloquently weave
together family and neighborhood photographs throughout, The
Cerebral Jukebox shares unforgettable recollections from one womans
life as she matures from childhood to adulthood in the greatest
city in the world."
