Notes

Description
Down These Mean Streets is the document of one man's journey from childhood to maturity; it is at once moving and terrifying, shocking and tender, touching and stunning. Piri Thomas, son of Puerto Rican parents -- one dark, one white -- was born in New York's Spanish Harlem and grew up in those "mean streets." From the time that he first ran away from home at the age of fourteen, the author records the sometimes poetic, sometimes brutal story of his life. --,Publisher.
