Ebook About
WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION FROM NEW YORK TIMES BEST-SELLING AUTHOR TAYARI JONES “How can a novel’s social criticism be so unflinching and clear, yet its plot moves like a house on fire? I am tempted to describe Petry as a magician for the many ways that The Street amazes, but this description cheapens her talent . . . Petry is a gifted artist.” — Tayari Jones, from the IntroductionThe Street follows the spirited Lutie Johnson, a newly single mother whose efforts to claim a share of the American Dream for herself and her young son meet frustration at every turn in 1940s Harlem. Opening a fresh perspective on the realities and challenges of black, female, working-class life, The Street became the first novel by an African American woman to sell more than a million copies.

Book The Street Review :



This book is nothing short of a CLASSIC. This novel is a timeless work that is powerfully and beautifully written. It was one of the first books written by an African-American to sell a million copies. I first read this book as a course requirement in a graduate English class about American novels. I remember feeling furious about the fact that I had not known about the novel before -- and I am a voracious reader. Why hadn't this brilliant novel been assigned at the "mainstream" university I attended as an undergraduate? It appears that, some years back, this groundbreaking novel was “rediscovered;” and, currently, it is being used at the high school, college and graduate school level. Indeed, it is the kind of book that, like Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn, one can plumb more and more from the book as one grows older and and becomes more advanced intellectually. The Street, set in the 1940s, is about a beautiful African American female, separated from her husband, who attempts to advance, as a single parent with a small son, against the forces of racism, discrimination, sexism, poverty and a gritty, crowded, segregated Harlem ghetto environment that is filled with challenges to living a decent quality of life, but is, nevertheless, reassuring, in some aspects, to its African American inhabitants. The 18 chapter book is a tour de force, and easily could have been written today because it brings forth a number of societal issues that are still highly problematic. Those problems include the ways in which Black male/female relationships are impacted by racism and poverty, and the shameful ways in which African American children in urban areas are often negatively, and unjustly, perceived and improperly educated.
This book was amazing, and I'm so glad I read it. Takes place in Harlem during WWII, and focuses on a young single mother who has to deal with poverty, lack of opportunity, racism, worries about raising her son, and predatory men. It's poetic, stream-of-consciousness, and very sad. The issues are so much the same as what people face and discuss today - it makes it seem like nothing much has changed, even though the Civil Rights Movement made great strides after this book was written.
