Beschreibung

An exceptional work of investigative journalism, Land of Opportunity is a probing tale of blighted dreams and misguided ambition. "One of the most fascinating and unforgettable families in American literature . . . destined to become the most prominent tome in the modern inner-city street life genre".--Claude Brown, author of Manchild in the Promised Land. Land of Opportunity has been optioned by Boyz 'N the Hood director John Singleton for his next film.
