This explosive autobiographical volume is about entertainer Jerry Castaldo growing up on the mean streets of Brooklyn, NY, his agonizing descent into the darkness of the city's underbelly and his desperate struggle back to normalcy.

Celebrated NY Post Columnist, Author and playwright Chip Deffaa edited this dark, yet highly inspirational story.

"Heartbreaking," "surprising," "emotionally charged."

"Shocking," "volatile," "riveting" and "just plain scary."

Those comments are from readers of this book who cut a wide swath across a varied demographic--men, women; young, old; and who are from varying socio-economic and cultural backgrounds and locales.

Michael Musto, award-winning "Village Voice" celebrity gossip columnist and TV's "E! Channel" regular, calls Brooklyn NY: A Grim Retrospective:
