La ley de la calle

Synopsis of La ley de la calle

Rusty James has managed to get ahead, although at a high price. The small skirmishes turned into serious problems, with drugs and threats on every corner, the glint of steel and the smell of blood, the reformatories, the wild parties and the girls. And, above all, the death of a good friend who marked his life forever. The characters in 'La ley de la calle', filmed by Francis Ford Coppola as 'Rumble Fish', are full of humanity and feelings, just like the protagonists of 'Rebeldes', the first novel with which Susan E. Hinton surprised the world.

This Spanish edition of 'La ley de la calle' is a work that explores the harsh reality of surviving in the suburbs of a big city, where the laws of the street are relentless. Susan E. Hinton, with her direct and emotional narrative style, presents us with unforgettable characters and conflicts that invite us to reflect on the human condition.
