Reviews
A classic of American realism . . . The Street rushes toward its fatalistic climax like a train toward a washed-out bridge., "A major literary invention . . . A truly great book." --The Los Angeles Times "Overflows with the classic pity and terror of good imaginative writing." --The New York Times "A powerful, uncompromising work of social criticism. To this day, few works of fiction have so clearly illuminated the devastating impact of racial injustice." --Coretta Scott King "A classic of American realism . . . The Street rushes toward its fatalistic climax like a train toward a washed-out bridge." --Newsday, "A powerful, uncompromising work of social criticism. To this day, few works of fiction have so clearly illuminated the devastating impact of racial injustice." -- Coretta Scott King, "A major literary invention . . . A truly great book." The Los Angeles Times "Overflows with the classic pity and terror of good imaginative writing." The New York Times "A powerful, uncompromising work of social criticism. To this day, few works of fiction have so clearly illuminated the devastating impact of racial injustice." -- Coretta Scott King "A classic of American realism . . . The Street rushes toward its fatalistic climax like a train toward a washed-out bridge." Newsday, Ann Petry's best-selling first novel, The Street , is the tragic story of Lutie Johnson, a young black woman, and her struggle to live decently and raise her son amidst the violence, poverty, desperation, and racial discord of Harlem in the late 1940s. Lutie's marriage falls apart after she takes a job as a live-in nanny and maid in Connecticut, leaving her husband, Jim, and her son behind. When Lutie finds out that Jim "has taken up with another woman," she packs up her son and her things and moves out. She eventually ends up on 116th Street, signing the lease on the only apartment she can afford: three rooms in a building with narrow dark halls and prying, noisy neighbors. Often compared to Richard Wright's Native Son for its stark despair, The Street was the first book by an African American female writer to sell over one million copies.

    Book received almost in condition as described. Obviously the postal service dropped it and the edges were dented. Not to worry was able to fix those mostly. Great value and very happy with the purchase
