"A linguistic event. Gutter language, Spanish imagery and personal poetics . . . mingle into a kind of individual statement that has very much its own sound." --The New York Times Book Review Thirty years ago Piri Thomas made literary 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 consolations 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 freedom 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.

For years, it loomed as the universal symbol for forbidden sex, theatrical glamour, mob muscle, and political influence. Today, thanks to an astonishing metamorphosis, it has emerged as the new century's favorite American family fantasyland. Naughty, bawdy, and wondrously revealing, this is the life story of the planet's most extraordinary thoroughfare. Parading some of New York City's most unforgettable characters -- including Ed Koch, Donald Trump, Jackie Onassis, Gerald Schoenfeld, and Rudy Giuliani -- bestselling author Marc Eliot portrays as never before the battle between the brothels and the theaters for control of the world's crossroads, the Syndicate's exploitation of pornography to set up a massive Times Square drug operation, and the chance in-flight encounter between the media heiress and the studio boss that planted the seed for The Deuce's sweeping Disneyfication. DOWN 42nd STREET is at once colorful social history, spectacular boardroom drama, and grand and suspenseful narrative spectacle. Book jacket.

“This is Not My Story” is a thoughtful look at sexual abuse through the eyes of a survivor and insights into the way God intervenes and blesses during the journey of healing from abuse. You will read specific scriptures and how they came to life during her own healing from incest and abuse. This book is intended to show God’s glory in the midst of darkness. It’s a rare and most honoring moment when you are invited into someone’s healing journey. As a licensed mental health practitioner, it is one that I don’t take lightly. It is in these moments when you’re able to discover something unique about your own trauma through another’s painstakingly painful years of agony and horror. It is in this place where doors and pathways are opened that shed light on what was once drowned in darkness. A light comes on and a discovery of hope and healing lies in your grasp, for maybe the first time ever. And you are finally able to say, “maybe their journey of healing could be mine also”. “This is Not My Life; - God’s Providence through my story of Abuse and Recovery.” does just that, as my dear friend and former colleague, Jodeen Bradfield discloses the deepest of pain and suffering that comes from being on the wrong side of abuse. This book is a game changer for those looking for hope, when everything tells you that there is none. Be prepared to be rocked to your core as you navigate your own healing journey while walking alongside Jodeen in hers. Our greatest victories are often granted at the sacrifice of others. At the core, this is what Jodeen has birthed, as she has dedicated her life to bringing hope and healing to those suffering from the effects of trauma and abuse. You will walk away forever changed.” Chelsey Burr, MS, LMHP, LPC
