Harbor

Harbor

by Ernest Poole

The Harbor tells the story of Billy, a young man growing up on the bustling Brooklyn waterfront. He dreams of escaping the world of shipping, his father's business, and finding a life as a writer. His journey leads him to Paris, where he encounters different perspectives and challenges that force him to confront the realities of life. As Billy grows and evolves, he grapples with personal relationships, the changing landscape of the harbor, and the burgeoning labor movement, eventually finding himself drawn back to his roots and using his writing to explore the complex world around him.
