Hardcover. Large Print. As New. Sharp corners, shiny boards. Clean text block. Appears unread.
This candid memoir by a renowned sociologist recounts the intensely personal story of a tormented youth spent in a ghetto within a ghetto, a small remnant community of Eastern European Jewish immigrants residing in predominantly black Harlem, eking out a marginal existence. This unforgettable story is somehow astonishingly uplifting; the sense of strength, self-reliance, and a life shaped by movie houses, the Apollo Theater in its heyday, the Polo Grounds, Central Park, hospitals, and indeed the streets of Harlem is a lesson in resilience of both the individual and America.
Winner of the National Jewish Book Award in autobiography.

Join me in my never ending book search. Totally ecstatic to find a jewel in the pile. My library is slowly running out of space. We probably have the same predicament.
