Synopsis "The Basketball Diaries (in English)"

The urban classic coming-of-age story about sex, drugs, and basketball Jim Carroll grew up to become a renowned poet and punk rocker. But in this memoir of the mid-1960s, set during his coming-of-age from 12 to 15, he was a rebellious teenager making a place and a name for himself on the unforgiving streets of New York City. During these years, he chronicled his experiences, and the result is a diary of unparalleled candor that conveys his alternately hilarious and terrifying teenage existence. Here is Carroll prowling New York City--playing basketball, hustling, stealing, getting high, getting hooked, and searching for something pure. The Basketball Diaries was the basis for the film of the same name starring Leonardo DiCaprio. "I met him in 1970, and already he was pretty much universally recognized as the best poet of his generation. . . . The work was sophisticated and elegant. He had beauty." -- Patti Smith

Me gustó la calidad de la impresión, las letras son gruesas y claras, de un color negro intenso. El único detalle es que la portada es de un material extraño, podría decir que de mala calidad, ya que se dobla fácilmente, es más delgado de lo común y su impresión se "borra" cuando lo doblas, porque le quedan unas marcas blancas, nunca me había pasado. Sin embargo esto no afecta en la lectura. Agradezco el envío gratis y se me hizo un buen precio, además de que busqué este libro por mucho tiempo y únicamente lo encontré aquí, pensé que no lo lograría, así que muchas gracias.
