Synopsis
A memoir written as a series of essays on topics such as poverty, homelessness, racism, family, urban violence, and drug addiction.
NY Times Book Review
Like Dorothy Parker cradling a martini, he makes no apologies...the prose lengthens out into easy strides, the storytelling is sound and the characters fresh...the portraits etched out of a rock of crack cocaine.
