Abstract
- When her husband became too sick five years ago to tend to the family dry-cleaning business, Kyung-Sook Woo did not hesitate to take over the job, sometimes rising so early to open the shop that customers would find her with a curling iron in her hand and her long hair half-curled. They knew Mrs. Woo, 52, as their determined but lovable dry cleaner, as much a charming mainstay of Windsor Terrace as the porch-fronted houses that line the Brooklyn neighborhood's narrow streets. She had been robbed at least twice, her customers said, but she remained undeterred. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
