The Best—and Worst—Things About Brooklyn During the Holidays
Halimah Marcus; editor, Electric Literature
Last night, my boyfriend and I drove around Nostrand, Flatbush, Coney Island, Ocean, and Bedford Avenues looking for someone to sell us a Christmas Tree after 9PM. The task was absurd enough to make us wonder if it should be a tradition. (This year’s winner was Cortelyou.) Also, I fucking love “A Muppet’s Christmas Carol” (with Gonzo as Dickens and Michael Cane as Scrooge). It is a film that transcends time and place.
