THE STREET tells the poignant, often heartbreaking story of
Lutie Johnson, a young black woman, and her spirited
struggle to raise her son amid the violence, poverty, and
racial dissonance of Harlem in the late 1940s. Originally
published in 1946 and hailed by critics as a masterwork,
The Street was Ann Petry's first novel, a beloved
bestseller with more than a million copies in print. Its
haunting tale still resonates today.
