"Romeo and Juliet in northern New Jersey? Yiddish constellations in Asbury Park? A garbage dump in the Meadowlands that's filled with old musical instruments from a high school marching band? In this tale of love - lost and won, young and old - we come to know the Rubins, a family that is falling apart despite its best intentions.".
"Is it possible to find true love, the one and only - known in Yiddish as b'shert? Anthony Rubin, the young protagonist, may or may not have found it with his neighbor Juliette, daughter of a reputed Mafioso. Jess, his mother, who leaves New Jersey after her husband's affair with a neighbor, has lost her faith in love entirely. But his father, Michael, still pursues it, and so does Anthony's grandpa Max, who meets the love of his life at 81."--BOOK JACKET.
