In Street Life, Marjorie makes an incisive visit into the minds, lives and times of the desolate of our society in their dire strife for survival in a callous world. You will meet familiar street characters with their varried, often conflicting cares, but with at least one common goal: ”trying to live ‘decently on the pavement.”
