Description

A bleak and shocking novel about young men left to raise themselves, Sol Yurick's The Warriors is a brutal tale of savagery that emerges from the torn fabric of human society. On a hot 4th of July night in New York City, a gathering of disparate youth gangs descends into violence, setting off a chain of events that takes them on a terrifying journey through the city's night. As the Dominators fight their way back to Coney Island, they leave a trail of destruction in their wake. This is a story about the animal savagery that can emerge when young men are left to fend for themselves, and the urgent warning it holds about the fragility of human society. First published in 1965, The Warriors is a powerful and unflinching portrayal of a world on the brink of chaos.
