A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Original Edition~ The West Side Story is a tragic love story of Tony and Maria that touches all in many ways. Set in New York City, it introduces two groups. The Jets: an American gang and The Sharks: a Puerto Rican gang. The gangs attend a community dance in which they plan a fight. Things take an interesting twist when Tony -- the former leader of the Jets -- falls for Maria, Bernardo's sister. Bernardo happens to be the leader of the Sharks who he doesn't want his sister involved with his rival. This is, without a doubt, an urban equivalent of Romeo and Juliet. The stories are very similar, but West Side Story has an irresistible urban appeal, an appeal that has been capturing audiences and readers, young for many decades. Also included: A Study Guide for students and teachers.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

From the silver screen to the Great White Way—one of the greatest stories of all time.

They came together through love but violence threatened to tear them apart. Maria was young and innocent and had never known love—until Tony. And he, who had been seeking something beyond the savagery of the streets, discovered it with her.
     But Maria’s brother was leader of the Sharks and Tony had once led the rival Jets. Now both gangs were claiming the same turf. Tony promised Maria that he would stay out of it. Would he be able to keep his word? Or would their newfound love be destroyed by sudden death?
