Now I have to get the book. Thanks. :)
Look for two books by Jean Shepherd {writer and narrator} of Christmas Story. “In God we trust all others pay cash” & “Wanda Hickey’s night of golden memories and other disasters”. Those two have his best stories. I think Wanda Hickey has Ollie Hopnoodles haven of bliss. The Old Man {dad} Shepherd wrote about is a Lucky Strike smoking siting at the breakfast table in his Boxer tee shirt with scalding hot coffee & no one better talk too before his second cup dad. LOL Kinda rough language. But typical for the venue of where it was supposed to have taken place. The Polish wedding is priceless. LOL.
