La calle by Ann Petry Book Summary
Un clásico de la literatura norteamericana absolutamente vigente sobre las dificultades de una madre soltera para sacar adelante a su hijo.
Nueva York, década de 1940. En una vivienda pobre en el corazón de Harlem, Lutie Johnson está decidida a construir una nueva vida para ella y su hijo de ocho años. Tras dejar a un marido infiel, sola y casi sin dinero, Lutie tiene fe en el sueño americano y está convencida de que sólo necesita trabajo duro y determinación. Pero en su camino se dará de frente con una realidad marcada por la violencia hacia las mujeres, la pobreza y el racismo.
Publicada originalmente en 1946 y aclamada por los críticos como una obra maestra, La calle vendió un millón y medio de ejemplares, convirtiendo así a Petry en la primera autora afroamericana en superar el millón de libros vendidos. Un libro adictivo que aúna magistralmente elementos de una trama de suspense con temas sociales aún vigentes, y que traducimos por primera vez al castellano.
«La calle está a medio camino entre las belles lettres y la literatura popular, y Ann Petry puede ser considerada una pionera del thriller literario, género que acabaría popularizando su coetánea Patricia Highsmith», escribe Tayari Jones en el prólogo a esta edición.
