Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book plunges us into the vibrant and gritty world of Marseilles' bustling port in the early 20th century. We meet Banjo, a Black American vagabond and gifted musician, who arrives with dreams of the city's legendary allure. He quickly finds himself immersed in the chaotic underbelly of the "Ditch," a notorious red-light district teeming with sailors, touts, and a cast of colorful characters all striving to survive on the margins. Through Banjo's experiences and encounters with fellow beach bums like Malty, Ginger, and Bugsy, the author paints a vivid picture of life on the fringes. The narrative delves into themes of poverty, camaraderie, and the fleeting nature of joy in a harsh environment. Banjo's quest to form an orchestra becomes a symbol of hope and ambition amidst the bleak reality of the beach. Latnah, a woman of ambiguous origins, enters Banjo's life and adds another layer of complexity to his journey. Her enigmatic personality and independent spirit challenge the traditional dynamics between men and women in this unforgiving world. Ultimately, the book offers a poignant reflection on the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring power of music and connection in the face of adversity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780243312610_0
