Requests:  0 Summary:  Peace was a talented young African-American man who escaped the slums of Newark for Yale University, only to succumb to the dangers of the streets -- and of one's own nature -- when he returned home. When Hobbs arrived at Yale University, he became fast friends with Peace, his college roommate for four years. Peace's life was rough from the beginning in the crime-ridden streets of Newark in the 1980s, and he carried with him the difficult dual nature of his existence, "fronting" in Yale and at home. Through an honest rendering of Peace's relationships, Hobbs examines the collision of two fiercely insular worlds.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aiea Public Library Adult Nonfiction 974.9044 Peace Ho Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 974.9044 Peace Ho Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 974.9044 Peace Ho Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 974.9044 Peace Ho Checked In Add Copy to MyList Keaau P/S Library Adult Biography B 974.9044 Peace Ho Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 974.9044 Peace Ho Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Biography B Peace Ho Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Biography B Peace Hobbs Checked In Add Copy to MyList
