Review 203: Palm Trees on the Hudson by Elliot Tiber

Review 203: Palm Trees on the Hudson by Elliot Tiber

By Amanda Ramo on April 22, 2011

In a world where one decision can alter the course of a lifetime, Elliot Tiber spins a tale of change more glittering and twisty than the Yellow Brick road. Palm Trees on the Hudson (A true story of the mob, Judy Garland & interior decorating.) showcases the narrative of Tiber’s life pre-Woodstock. Our narrator clicks his ruby heels and escorts readers through a world filled with scowling Jewish mothers, Bohemian neighbors, and outlandish Mafia clientele. Past all the trials and turbulence, Tiber’s audience is afforded sensual immersion in Judy Garland’s music, inspired styles of self-expression, and night life so dazzling my wanderlust began to ache for old New York, New York.
