Book Description
Little Duke Boy is an inspirational fiction novel based on true life events about a young boy named Clabo. The page-turner recounts Clabo growing up in the projects in Pittsburgh, PA., in a fatherless environment and a mother addicted to heroin. Clabo doesn't allow this dynamic to affect him too deeply. At least he doesn't think so. While most of the people around him are dysfunctional, broke and broken - he has a couple of positive male role models who feeds him wisdom that he will later use when he's of age. While he didn't have a relationship with his earthly father, he forms and nurtures a strong connection with his heavenly Father. But that doesn't come right away. Before Clabo connects with God, he gets connected to the street life at the tender age of 10. By the time Clabo is 16, he's been arrested, sold drugs, gets his girlfriend pregnant, and becomes feared among his neighborhood peers. Clabo lives a fast life that is all too real to young Black boys in the hood. Surrounded by violence, drugs, dirty money, robbery, women, a near-death experience - and even murder for hire charges, Clabo eventually decides this lifestyle isn't for him and wants to change. But does he? Little Duke Boy chronicles a jaw-dropping, adrenaline rushing, heart-wrenching experience that makes you want to save this hot-head, yet it's laced with a measure of faith that will tug the hearts of even the most hardcore souls reading this story.

Little Boy
Author: Lawrence Ferlinghetti
Publisher: Anchor
ISBN: 0525565957
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
From the famed publisher and poet, author of the million-copy-selling collection A Coney Island of the Mind, his literary last will and testament -- part autobiography, part summing up, part Beat-inflected torrent of language and feeling, and all magical. "A volcanic explosion of personal memories, political rants, social commentary, environmental jeremiads and cultural analysis all tangled together in one breathless sentence that would make James Joyce proud. . ." —Ron Charles, The Washington Post In this unapologetically unclassifiable work Lawrence Ferlinghetti lets loose an exhilarating rush of language to craft what might be termed a closing statement about his highly significant and productive 99 years on this planet. The "Little Boy" of the title is Ferlinghetti himself as a child, shuffled from his overburdened mother to his French aunt to foster childhood with a rich Bronxville family. Service in World War Two (including the D-Day landing), graduate work, and a scholar gypsy's vagabond life in Paris followed. These biographical reminiscences are interweaved with Allen Ginsberg-esque high energy bursts of raw emotion, rumination, reflection, reminiscence and prognostication on what we may face as a species on Planet Earth in the future. Little Boy is a magical font of literary lore with allusions galore, a final repository of hard-earned and durable wisdom, a compositional high wire act without a net (or all that much punctuation) and just a gas and an inspiration to read.
