Book Discussion Group - Harlem shuffle

Step into the story of Harlem shuffle at Sheepshead Bay Library on June 20th, 2025, for an engaging book discussion!

This month, we're diving into “Harlem shuffle”,

“Ray Carney was only slightly bent when it came to being crooked...' To his customers and neighbors on 125th street, Carney is an upstanding salesman of reasonably-priced furniture, making a life for himself and his family. He and his wife Elizabeth are expecting their second child, and if her parents on Striver's Row don't approve of him or their cramped apartment across from the subway tracks, it's still home. Few people know he descends from a line of uptown hoods and crooks, and that his façade of normalcy has more than a few cracks in it. Cracks that are getting bigger and bigger all the time.”
