Brian Dominic Canaries Over Canarsie

Annotation

Freddie Breda-Moreno, the Harley-driving maniac from the Jersey shore, was an unlikely leader of a revolution, but as Wall Street greed went viral in 2008, his nickname, "Sparky," would take on a whole new meaning.When Moreno's brother-in-law-one of New Jersey's richest, most influential business men-rebuilds South Nullibi City, installs his wife as mayor and secretly uses the whole project to cover up a complex Ponzi scheme and massive landlord scam, Sparky and his family take the lead in a people's revolt!This wickedly satiric battle between a complicated "Jersey every man" and his "wealthy one-percenter" brother-in-law may just be a domestic fight on steroids-or it may just turn out to be a war for the economic soul of America. Told in the author's dark, gritty, and heartbreakingly ironic voice, Canaries breaks out as a tour-de-force of contemporary fiction in dark economic times.
