A World I Never Made by James T. Farrell
A World I Never Made follows three generations in two families, the working-class O'Neills and the lower-middle-class O'Flahertys, as they confront harsh urban realities. The O'Neills' lives illustrate the tragic consequences of poverty when young Danny O'Neill's parents, unable to sustain their large family, send him to live with his grandmother. At seven, Danny experiences anxiety and dislocation as he learns the ins and outs of life on the street and confronts a world he never made.
