Bad reviews almost put me off my November #doublespin pick. Glad they didn‘t because I really enjoyed this immersive piece of historical fiction that brought late 19th century NYC to life. The pace was slow but I enjoyed following the hapless Harris as he stumbled from Barnum, to street gang, to sewer, to the Brooklyn Bridge in search of the elusive American dream or at least just a safe place to land in the growing chaotic city.
