Life on 83rd Street in Bensonhurst revolves around stickball games, neighborhood friendships, and the unwritten rules of the block. But when Victor—a feared kid from outside the neighborhood—arrives with a reputation for violence and a habit of shaking down the kids on the street, the easy rhythms of childhood are disrupted. As Victor's influence grows, twelve-year-old Jerry is drawn toward an unavoidable confrontation that will test his courage and change the way he sees himself. Funny, suspenseful, and deeply personal, Street Fight captures a time when a Brooklyn block could feel like an entire world—and one afternoon could feel like a lifetime.
