Review

"Filled with a kind of vitality. . . a remarkable account of New York City's lower depths."
-New York Times

"His terse wit, with its archly contrived naïveté, transforms The Basketball Diaries, a tale of teenage rebellion, into a contemporary classic."-
-Newsweek

"A generational hit." -Esquire
