There's no point in trying, he figures, and lured by the nightlife of Boston and New York, he escapes into a world of fancy suits, jazz, girls, and reefer. But Malcolm's efforts to leave the past behind lead him into increasingly dangerous territory. Deep down, he knows that the freedom he's found is only an illusion -- and that he can't run forever. 521 1 $a Age 14 and up. 541 $d 20161214. 600 10 $a X, Malcolm $d 1925-1965 $x Childhood and youth $v Juvenile fiction. 650 7 $a Racism $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Poor $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a African Americans $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Black Muslims $v Juvenile fiction. 700 $a Magoon, Kekla, $e author. 941 $a 3 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20220806012524.0 952 $l AXPF626 $d 20220223011349.0 952 $l FJPC224 $d 20170328010835.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0F21057A137C11E78F49B582DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
