The city of lost children
The fourth devastating season of "The Wire" leaves America's doomed urban youth far, far behind.
By Heather Havrilesky [2006-12-11]

  • Nice piece

    I would add that

    1) the story of Bubble and Gerard served as a fifth example of a man reaching out to a boy only to find his efforts sorely insufficient

    and

    2) Namond may not be out of the woods, as is shown by the look on his face in the final moments, when he smiles at some gangster in a spiffy car flashing a gang side; he's got a taste for the street and will always fight against it
