"A Rebel Life" is a true story based on writer Kalafatis own past, growing up in the streets of New York during the 80's where reputation is everything, and about the three days in 2005 that leads up to his own brother's funeral. After hearing about his younger brother the writer is forced into a battle within his own head. How should he deal with it? This is a story about either conforming to the system that you hate or staying true to the streets where you will get killed sooner or later.

This is one of those books you won't put down once you've picked it up. Dealing with death, drugs, capitalism, classism, homelessness and violence this book is defnitely worth checking out since it's a true story lived by the author himself. This is his debut novel and it's very well written. I'm keeping my eyes open for further works by Peter Kalafatis.
