Description
Nights in White Castle: A MemoirPicking up where he left off in his acclaimed memoir Sting Ray Afternoons, Steve Rushin brilliantly captures a bygone era, and the thrills of new adulthood in the early 80s. It begins in Bloomington, Minnesota, with a 13 year old kid staging his own author photo that he hopes will someday grace the cover of a book jacket. And it ends at a desk in the legendary Time & Life building, with that same boy now in his early 20s and writing professionally
Picking up where he left off in his acclaimed memoir Sting-Ray Afternoons, Steve Rushin brilliantly captures a bygone era, and the thrills of new adulthood in the early 80s.It begins in Bloomington, Minnesota, with a 13-year-old kid staging his own author photo that he hopes will someday grace the cover of a book jacket. And it ends at a desk in the legendary Time & Life building, with that same boy-now in his early 20s and writing professionally-reflecting on how the hell he got there from what seems like a distant universe. In between, Steve Rushin whisks us along on an extraordinarily funny, tender, and altogether unforgettable journey.
From a menial summer job at suburban Bennigan's, to first-time college experiences in Milwaukee, to surviving early adulthood in seedy New York City, this deeply touching odyssey will remind any reader of those special moments when they too went from innocence to experience.

Not stiff or tight…
Size: 13.5 Little Kid, Color: Turquoise/Multi
My niece loved them. So many of the slips in shoes are too stiff and tight, this one was easy on, not stiff or tight, just perfect!

Great for the price and the rhinestones add the extra pop.
Size: 2 Big Kid, Color: White/Rhinestones
My 7yo loves them. They appear well made and fit as expected. I saw some reviews of them being too big but no issues here. She’s worn them everyday for a week and she said they are comfortable. Color matches description and the rhinestones add the “extra sparkle” she loves. They did get some mud on them at recess but it was easy to clean off. Overall, no complaints for the price.

Inexpensively Cute, Resilient and Durable...
Size: 5 Big Kid, Color: Purple, Size: 5 Big Kid, Color: Purple
Purchased these cheap mesh-like breathable, high quality light-weight canvas material non-reputable, off-brand name sneakers for my stepdaughter because her puma sneakers were wet. My daughter loves them; not only are they her favorite color, she says they're very comfortable and easy to put on. They're easy to put on, with a slip on style and also have tie up for a tighter fit. My daughter also says likes the purple in-sole bubble that looks like a real air bubble but its really hard plastic volcanized to give a nice polished purple color finish. My daughter is happy with them, so I am too. They're well worth the practical cost, I look forward to them lasting a growth period of approximately six months to a year. Highly recommended. Pick you child's favorite color! You'll be happy you did...
