    <body><![CDATA[This was a nice fast read, perfect for subway rides and short attention spans.  Not as campy as the movie, but still with a little bit of &quot;Warriors&quot;.  The setting is the Bronx in the 1960s and some of the characters are more than characatures -- it depicts the genesis of the 60s era while ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/49244546">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is a hell-of-a debut novel. Price's writing is explosive and  honest; it conveys a world of troubled and alienated youth from the 1960's that unfortunately doesn't seem to be going out of fashion. It's violent and gripping and pretty damn funny. ]]></body>
