The Street by Ann Petry

dark reflective sad slow-paced
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

4.0

Really well written. Keeps you reading even though the pace is slow and the plot extremely depressing. 

There's nothing happy or hopeful about this story, and the layers of oppression and injustice remain virtually unchanged almost a century later.
