Explanation:

Third and Indiana (1994) is a novel by American journalist Steve Lopez. Composed of a series of vignettes, it follows a number of characters in the lower strata of urban Philadelphia. The plot loosely pivots around a central character, Gabriel Santoro, a teenage artist and drug dealer, who has run away from his family. As he becomes more involved with Philadelphia’s underground crime rings, his mother, Ofelia, frantically searches for him, enlisting the help of a priest Father Laetner and police officer Bill Bagno. The novel’s main antagonist is Diablo, Gabriel’s drug lord, who refuses to relinquish control of him. Minor characters include Eddie, a runaway from South Philly who is being pursued by the mob, and Gabriel’s friend Mike, a criminal entrepreneur who aspires to become a grave burglar to settle his friends’ financial problems. The book, though fictional, is based on Lopez’s observations of the darker areas of Philadelphia, and is credited with bringing attention to certain sociologically interesting sites, including the Badlands and Fairhill regions.

The novel takes place entirely in the streets of Philadelphia, particularly in the Badlands, an area notorious for its criminal activity. The Badlands have been essentially wrested from the control of law enforcement by local gangs. Gabriel runs away from his parents at the young age of fourteen, deciding to make a living by dealing drugs. He leaves behind his Dominican-Canadian mother, Ofelia; his Italian-Cuban father, Ruben, had previously abandoned the family. Possessing a hybrid racial identity, Gabriel is cast mainly as an outsider: he is precocious, but also anxious and misguided, seeming to care little for the plight of those to whom he sells drugs. His customers include young mothers, who throw away money they could use to care for their children in exchange for crack cocaine. Gabriel is cast as a morally ambiguous and sympathetic protagonist.

maturity and resilience.
