Publisher's Synopsis
From Essence bestselling author Karen E. Quinones Miller comes this story following the hectic, intersecting lives of three friends and neighbours. 25 years ago the Ida Barrett Wells Tower offered Harlem residents safe, affordable housing. Then a crack scourge hit. But the residents of the tower block remain resilient and fiercely loyal. Uptown Dreams is an unforgettable, unflinchingly honest rendition of the Harlem experience and an inspiring glimpse at the universal struggle to survive and overcome from one of today's most assured writers.
