(The Not-So-Good) Kind of World We Live In

This is the true story of a good, hard-working, and honest man who grows up in New York City, without any real parents or true friends. He tries hard to make it in this world, but everything is against him.

His lack of education forces him into the military service, where his life becomes even harder, but he stays in there, punching. He tries hard to make it in his life, but he never quite does.

At the end of the book, he tries to explain why things happen the way they do, and why the world can be such a cruel place.
