few writers have shown us before-the mean streets of South Central, the after-hours joints in dirty basement clubs, the cheap hotels and furnished rooms, the places people go when they don't want to be found.

Fired from his job on the line at an aircraft plant, he's in danger of losing his home, symbol of his tenuous hold on middle class status. "I thought there might be some justice for a black man if he had money to grease it," Easy says. His stint in the Army didn't do anything to dissuade him from his belief that justice doesn't come cheap, especially for men like him.
