Streets 1970, by Merle Molofsky: An Unfortunate, Uncanny Relevance
Streets 1970, a novel written in 1971 and published by IP Books in 2015, is a gritty, street-savvy, poetic account of the heroin epidemic in New York City in 1970. The main characters are heroin addicts, looking for what Allen Ginsberg termed the next “angry fix”, and struggling to find meaning in a life of poverty and crime. Today, in 2018, the United States is in the grip of a virulent opioid epidemic. The New York Times reported, May 29, 2018, that there is “a mounting epidemic that involves prescription opioids, and, increasingly, illegal opioid compounds like heroin and counterfeit forms of fentanyl”. Molofsky’s compassion and depth of understanding in telling her story chimes chillingly with the crisis we face today. We can learn a lot from this unfortunate, uncanny relevance.
