Description:

This family saga takes place in New York City's Greenwich Village. It begins in 1906 when nine-year-old Eddie is sent out by his mother to panhandle. Her husband is dying of tuberculosis and she is pregnant for the eleventh time. She can barely pay the rent, and her two youngest children have no shoes. There is no money for food and to keep the family warm over the winter she burns every stick of furniture in their one-bedroom basement apartment. As the Paul family's story unfolds, it is at the same time told through the eyes of Eddie as he grows up on the tough streets of Greenwich Village.
