Saint Mazie
By Jami Attenberg
336 pages;
Grand Central
Called the Queen of the Bowery, larger-than-life Mazie
Phillips Gordon ruled the teeming streets of Depression-era New York from a
movie theater’s ticket window and was fiercely protective of her subjects—bums and
vagabonds seeking shelter and a hot meal. Inspired by a true story, this novel
is as boisterous and compassionate as the woman it canonizes.
