Eating Corn Through A Picket Fence

About the Book

“I’ve got two tickets to…”*

Come with me on a trip of my past; through my eyes and through my head. I was a screwy, mixed up kid growing up in a screwy, mixed up world: Levittown, Long Island during the 1960’s and 70’s.

My mom and dad were Veterans of WWII. I consider myself a veteran of having lived with them. Levittown was a community of veterans where we all soothed our pains with “sex, drugs and rock and roll.”

To name a few things, my story is about alcoholism, patriotism, ADHD, music and my endless search for JFK, Jr. It’s also about Levittown: a very strange “concept” where almost each and every home was identical.

I wrote this book because through all of my experiences I actually think I may have figured a few things out. And because I honestly feel that this story may figuratively, and even literally, save a life.

About the Author

Helen currently lives with her “mah-ve-lous” husband, 4 Superkids and 2 crazy “animals” in a great town in northern New Jersey. Ironically, or conscientiously, the town she chose to live in has an ordinance whereby no two houses were to be built exactly the same. Unless something really out of this world happens, this is her first and last book.
