<DIV><DIV><b>Four children of immigrants grow up together in the back alleys of New York City&rsquo;s tenements, under the looming shadow of racism</b></div><BR><DIV>Ishky is Jewish; Marie and Shomake are Irish; Ollie is Italian. All children of immigrants, they are confronted daily by the prejudice that rules in one of the world&rsquo;s greatest urban centers: New York City. Living in slums, they must rely on each other to overcome hunger, disease, violence, and the bigotry of those who arrived before them. Fighting for a better life against the tide of poverty, the children must overcome their own city&rsquo;s barbarism, or be consumed by it.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>Heartrending in its scope and harrowing in its realism, <i>The Children</i> is an elegy of the ghettoes and a moving cri de coeur against bigotry and oppression in all its forms.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>This ebook features an illustrated biography of Howard Fast including rare photos from the author&rsquo;s estate.</div></div>
