Cover photograph by Channing Bates. keywords: Literature America Oakland African American. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Robby is a 13-year-old black runaway. He arrives in Oakland with his skateboard and his dreams of living by the ocean. What he finds is the Oakland streets - drugs, pervs, garbage, guns, gang warfare, and a close-knit group of friends who make life possible: the Animals. Their culture is based on skateboards, beer, rap slang, and danger. RATS IN THE TREES, told in the language of inner-city street kids, is dark and frightening. But these stories are written with such compassion and vitality that they affirm life. Jess Mowry lives writes and counsels kids in Oakland. In July 1988 he bought a used typewriter and began writing. Since then he has sold stories to ZYZZYVA, Alchemy, Sequoia, and Santa Clara Review. RATS IN THE TREES is his first book. Oakland flavored through and through, these wayward stories by a new writer, who actually sees and hears the street life around him, quiver with real life. They breathe, walk, strut, run, spin, cry, and laugh. But above all, Mowry's people hope against hopelessness. Readers weary of the hassle-free narcissistic creative writing that has become the hallmark of recent fiction will find themselves in the hands of a natural storyteller with something deeps meaningful, and moving to say about the way we live now.' - Al Young. Jess Mowry is a natural, fiendishly determined, absolutely polished naif who comes out of the blue fully equipped to devastate. His stories must be accurate - they are, after all, right off the street - but how to account for their power and perfection? He is a great discovery.' - Howard Junker, Editor, ZYZZYVA. inventory #16542.
