Waterfront 1955, Random House. NY 1st Edition Crime,Politics, Class In 1955, Budd Schulberg adapted his Academy Award winning screenplay into an exhilarating novel. Suspenseful and emotional, the novel presents a more complex and perhaps bleaker portrait of ex-boxer Terry Malloy's corrupt and stunted world on the docks of Hoboken. Narrated by Father Pete Barry, the novel shifts focus to the courageous priest who stands up to the Mob, as well as his own church, in order to redeem the souls of his hardscrabble and unloved constituents. On the Waterfront is a potent retelling of an iconic American story that stands apart as an unforgettable vision of crime, politics, and class in the twentieth century.

The laminate has started to peel from the dust jacket, however, it is stablized within a Brodard sleeve. Overall in pretty good collectible shape.
