"Inside cover review...."Wendy and Amanda haunt me still. As we follow these two unforgettable women from their troubled childhoods to the streets and shelters of Boston we see firsthand just how our failures to love and protect our children can lead to lifelong struggles.SONGS FROM THE ALLEY is for anyone who has ever looked at a homeless woman and wondered,How did she end up here? It is an extraordinary book and as compelling as any work of fiction."
