This memoir takes you on a journey through the eyes of Peter Wolf, as he recounts his childhood growing up in Metairie, Louisiana, and the complex social hierarchies of the city. With a fond heart and candid view, Wolf shares his personal experiences of exclusion from the city's inner circles, elite clubs, and high-status Mardi Gras krewes, despite his family's philanthropic work and success.

Through vivid descriptions of places and people, Wolf offers a meditation on identity and belonging, shedding light on the corruption, insularity, and racism that lurked beneath the city's cultural and culinary delights.

This is more than just a memoir - it's an intimate account of one boy's journey to find his place in the world. Don't miss out on this heartfelt and beautifully written portrait of New Orleans in the 1950s and 1960s, and the unique landscape that was shifting even before Hurricane Katrina altered it forever.
