Resumen:

Precious Blood : Immigrant Irish Brooklyn in the 1950s forms the setting for this rich story of growing up. Young Mike Driscoll and his friends at Precious Blood parish find life filled with complicated contrasts between the violent reality of tenements and gang-filled streets and the colorful, mystical fabric of their parents' reminiscences about rural Ireland. Learning of a contemplated act of violence, Mike is torn between loyalty to his peers and obligations to his church and family. His resolution of the dilemma saves his community from potential disaster but has repercussions beyond his imagining.
