![]() ![]() Hayden Thorne, Speak its Name -Hayden Thorne, Speak its NameProduct DescriptionNew York City, 1919. It's a great complement to a host of very real, very human characters. Dingy alleys, grimy walls, rundown apartments, cluttered shops, Ida's restaurant and her home-cooked meals - we get to see, smell, feel, taste, and hear everything. ![]() _Edge New York_ Engaging all our senses with details that help fix us firmly in the characters world, Allen manages to capture a very real city at a specific point in its history. the prose is lively and even musical (fitting, for the themes at play), and the connection between Jack and Sutton is depicted so fully and with such feeling that it almost doesn't matter where we are: New York, Sao Paolo, or The Twilight Zone, a good love story should choke you up and make you laugh in triumph. Kudos to the author! -Rainbow Reviews Tamara Allen's lively book Whistling in the Dark is a touching love story about two young men, just back from World War I, who find each other in New York City in the autumn of 1919. ![]() ReviewTamara Allen has peopled her story with diverse and colorful characters, villains and good guys alike, and keeps the reader involved with a series of subplots that, in my mind, could have filled yet another book. ![]()
