"In 2011 and 2012, while more than 900 people were being murdered on the streets of Chicago, creative-writing students from DePaul University fanned out all over the city to interview people whose lives have been changed by the bloodshed. The result is How Long Will I Cry?: Voices of Youth Violence, an extraordinary and eye-opening work of oral history. Told by real people in their own words, the stories in How Long Will I Cry? are at turns harrowing, heartbreaking and full of hope."--Publisher's website.
