New York City's Staten Island is often described as the forgotten borough. But with Staten Island Stories, Claire Jimenez shines a spotlight on the imagined lives of the islanders. Inspired by Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, this collection of loosely linked tragicomic short stories travels across time to explore defining moments in the island's history, from the 2003 Staten Island Ferry crash and the New York City blackout to the growing opioid and heroin crisis, Eric Garner's murder, and the 2016 presidential election.

The Gangster - Hugh Crawford put down his shovel. HMS Mosquito needed no more coal as she eased up to the Staten Island pier she would share with HMS Scorpion. A 24-hour leave took Hugh and his pals to half a dozen water front saloons. Finally to Angelo's, then across the street to "Mothers" and the arms of Mary Kate. It was that night and those arms that, at war's end, brought Hugh Crawford back to Staten Island.
The Musician - Sitting on the ferry boat bench Chuck Stacey's mind drifted back to the day Tom Kravitz called: "Chuck, Henry Love is here today but his drummer got arrested and he won't do a show until he can get a replacement. I told him you could do it. He said he would listen to you."
After more than a year with Henry Love, he and two pals struck out on their own and here they were on a boat to Staten Island and a New Year's Eve Ball. Not exactly the "big time" they had dreamed of.
The Lovely Young Lady - News that Chuck Stacey's Orchestra would play at the ball sent shivers of excitement up and down her spine. He must be the same Chuck Stacey she sang with two years ago in Uncle Belinni's Chicago saloon. Getting to that ball became the most important goal in her life.

Описание: Emerging from the Revolutionary War and the formation of a new nation, Staten Island was poised to enter the nineteenth century ripe for growth and prosperity. Fueled by waves of immigration, Richmond County became a boomtown of industry and transportation. Piloting his first ferry with just two small masts and eighteen-cent fares, Cornelius Vanderbilt built a transit empire from his native shores of Staten Island. When the Civil War erupted, Richmond played a key role in housing and training Union troops as 125 naval guns protected New York Harbor at the Narrows. At the close of the century, Staten Island was swept up in the politics of consolidation, with 84 percent of locals voting to join Greater New York, yet the promised benefits of a new mega-city never materialized. Author Joe Borelli charts the trials and triumphs of Staten Island in the nineteenth century.
