Go Sit On Your Own Stoop!

Local author John Khoury hosts a book event at Brooklyn Farmacy on Saturday.

John Khoury, longtime South Brooklyn resident, loved his neighborhood so much he wrote a book about it!

"Go Sit On Your Own Stoop: Stories of Growing up in Brooklyn in the 70s" is about Khoury's experiences. According to a press release Khoury was:

"...instantly captivated by stunning brownstones, omnipresent smell of freshly baked bread and the neck-snapping sight of crotchety old women returning home from the butcher dressed in nothing but smocks, pink curlers and a lip dangling Pall Mall."
