Produktbeschreibung

In Cleveland, 1969, a young white teenage blues enthusiast, at work at a summer factory job in the polluted Cuyahoga River Valley, meets a fellow shop floor worker named Fred Davis--who turns out to be an authentic Kansas City blues singer just-released from prison. Young Jon Levine dreams of addressing racial injustice and helping to revive Fred's career. The effort proves tragically complicated, as he finds himself drawn into the world of the Cleveland black ghetto, the conflicting desires of Davis and his wife, and finally the violence of Cleveland's streets. Howard Husock is a Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, Washington, DC. He is the author of five books, including 'The Poor Side of Town' (Encounter Books, 2021), 'Who Killed Civil Society (Encounter Books, 2019) and 'The Projects: A New History of Public Housing' (New York University Press, 2025), His career in newspapers, magazines, academia and think tanks includes serving as a music critic for The Boston Phoenix (1982-86).
