Garden City is the middle-class Long Island village where Elliott Murphy grew up, wrote his first story (Getting Away contained herein) and learned to play guitar and eventually sing and write highly persona songs, planting the seeds for an international career as a professional singer-songwriter that has spanned nearly five decades. Still a beautiful town, with well-kept lawns and a perceptible high maintenance of American bourgeoise civility, Garden City is similar to so many suburban towns where world-class dreams begin to take shape in teenage fantasies. This collection spans centuries, from the mid 20th to the second decade of the 21st and all of the stories in this collection bear some connection to the author's roots.
