Book by Taylor, Richard

    SOUTH STREET, where would-be "proletarian poet" Adlai Stevenson Brown comes together with pimps and whores, working men and wanting women, winos and junkies, preachers and con men in unpredictable combinations of impotence and empty rage; laughter, brassiness and pride.SOUTH STREET, charged with jazz rhythms, jive talk, and a brutal emotional power born of the raw realities and rich humanity of ghetto life.
