What is Palisades Park: A Novel about?

Bestseller Alan Brennert's spellbinding story about a familyВ of dreamers and their lives withinВ the legendary Palisades Amusement Park Growing up in the 1930s, there is no more magical place than Palisades Amusement Park in New Jersey—especially for seven-year-old Antoinette, who horrifies her mother by insisting on the unladylike nickname Toni,В and her brother, Jack. Toni helps her parents, Eddie and Adele Stopka, at the stand where they sell homemade French fries amid the roar of the Cyclone roller coaster. There is also the lure of the worldвЂTMs biggest salt-water pool, complete withВ divers whoseВ astonishing stunts inspire Toni, despite her mother's insistence that girls can't be high divers. But a family of dreamers doesn't always share the same dreams, and then the world intrudes:В There's the Great Depression, and Pearl Harbor, which hits home in ways thatВ will split the family apart; andВ perils like fire and race riotsВ in the park.В Both Eddie andВ Jack face the dangers ofВ war, whileВ Adele hasВ ambitions of her own—and Toni is determined to take onВ a very different kind of danger in impossible feats as aВ high diver.В Yet they are all drawn back to each other
