description About

"A brief account of a city gang, it is praised in the museum's program notes for capturing “the joie de vivre and the prankishness of teen‐age boys.” But since the joie de vivre comes from sniffing glue and the prankishness includes mugging adults, destroying property and knifing one teen‐ager and then running away, I must conclude that one man's happiness is another man's horror, and I stick to my own sour reading." - Roger Greenspun, New York Times review, October 19, 1971
