"Get it right right now: these aren't kids playing games of conflict. They imply business. They are simply junior-grade killers and open public enemies one through 5,000." In Rusty Santoro's neighborhood, the kids hold cutlery, chains, bricks, and broken glass. And when they struggle, they fight dusty, leaving the avenues full of the body of the harmed and the inactive. Rusty would like out - nevertheless, you can't just walk away from a fresh York neighborhood gang. And his decision may leave his family to pay a terrible price. First published over fifty percent a century previously and inspired by the author's real-life experience going undercover in the neighborhood gang, Web of the City was Harlan Ellison's first novel and designated the long-form debut of one of the very most electrifying, remarkable, and controversial voices of 20th-century words. Showing here with the short report "No Game for Children", which Ellison had written for the pulp mags of the 1950s, Web of the City offers both a snapshot of an lost age and a portrait of violence and grief as timely as today's most brutal headlines. Includes an release read by the writer.
