Answer 1

Always Running: La Vida Loca, Gang Days in L.A.(ISBN 0-671-88231-7) is a 1993 book by Mexican-American author Luis J. Rodriguez. Luis J. Rodriguez writes this book for his son. It is a memoir of his youth as a member of a street gang in Los Angeles (specifically, East Los Angeles and the city's eastern suburbs), which has been highly acclaimed and contrasted to the works of Louis-Ferdinand Celine and George Orwell's Down and Out in Paris and London in its description of the lives of desperate, impoverished individuals in big cities. On the book 'Always Running" a boy start telling his life and how and what he and his family had to put up with. In his life, he has a dad who was sent to jail for something he did not do, and that later on he was proven innocent, but when he came out of prison he didn't have his job anymore. He also tells that he has a brother, two sisters, a father and a mother. His soon became a great idol because he over came his gang trilogy. The book has been banned by many school districts in the U.S. for its frank sexual realism. This memoir contains vulgar language, however, it is to emphasize the themes and realities of his childhood. There is speculation of a film adaptation in the works.
