Street Corner Symphony

Drugs, guns, and violence-all are a part of American urban culture. Street Corner Symphony shares the dark side of the urban experience and how one man becomes ensnared in its web. Regardless of race, color, or creed, many families become embroiled in this culture, turning their American dream into a nightmare. Author Robert Lee Glover shares his personal story of tragedy and triumph through the urban landscape of drugs and violence. But Glover also points out the things in life that make us great, and how we are at our best when life seems to be at its worst. Street Corner Symphony will give hope to those with family members involved with drugs and assure them that it is not their fault. Glover's intimate journey through the horrors of drugs is also filled with redemption and spiritual awakening. Most importantly, Glover stresses that there is still hope for all of us, no matter what we have done or the life we have led. With strength, faith, and optimism, anything is possible.
