　　Thirty years ago Piri Thomas made li***ry history with this

lacerating, lyrical memoir of his coming of age on the streets of

Spanish Harlem. Here was the testament of a born outsider: a Puerto

Rican in English-speaking America; a dark-skinned morenito in a

family that refused to acknowledge its African blood. Here was an

unsparing document of Thomas's plunge into the deadly c***olati***

of drugs, street fighting, and armed robbery--a descent that ended

when the twenty-two-year-old Piri was sent to prison for shooting a

cop.

As he recounts the journey that took him from adolescence in El

Barrio to a lock-up in Sing Sing to the *** that comes of

self-acceptance, faith, and inner confidence, Piri Thomas gives us

a book that is as exultant as it is harrowing and whose every page

bears the irrepressible rhythm of its author's voice. Thirty years

after its first appearance, this classic of manhood,

marginalization, survival, and transcendence is available in an

anniversary edition with a new Introduction by the author.

　　The 30th anniversary edition of this classic memoir about

growing up in Spanish Harlem includes an afterword reminding us

that its streets are even meaner now, thanks to crack cocaine and

the dismantling of government poverty programs. As a dark-skinned

Puerto Rican, born in 1928, Piri Thomas faced with painful

immediacy the absurd contradicti*** of America's racial attitudes

(among people of all colors) in a time of wrenching social change.

Three decades have not dimmed the luster of his jazzy prose, rich

in Hispanic rhythms and beat-generation slang.
