Description: |
Danny is a "paisano", descended from the Spanish settlers who arrived in California centuries before. He is quick to offer shelter to his fellow gentlemen when he suddenly inherits two houses, until he tires of his responsibilities and disappears. |
Synopsis: |
"This is the story of Danny and of Danny's friends and of Danny's house. It is a story of how these three became on thing."Danny returns from the Great War to inherit two houses in the shabby district of Tortilla Flat. He falls in with a group of poor paisanos. Together, they gossip, talk about life and plan the next drinking binge. And, when money does come their way, the parties are the kind that are not easily forgotten.Hardback (including notes) 235pp |
