Author Dos Passos, John, 1896-1970
Title Streets of Night
Credits Laura Natal Rodrigues
Summary "Streets of Night" by John Dos Passos is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative immerses readers in the lives of young men navigating the complexities of friendship, romance, and social expectations during the vibrancy and challenges of college life. The main characters, Cham Mason and Fanshaw, encapsulate the struggles of self-identity and the quest for meaningful connections, particularly as they prepare for a canoe outing with two chorus girls. The opening of the novel introduces a lively conversation between Cham and Fanshaw as they discuss their plans for the evening. Cham is eager for Fanshaw to join him on a date with two girls, Phoebe and Elise, despite Fanshaw's reluctance and anxiety about fitting into the social scene. As they prepare, the atmosphere is filled with youthful apprehension and excitement, framed against the backdrop of a warm summer day. The narrative transitions from their playful banter to an exploration of the dynamic relationships between the characters, leading to a shared canoe adventure that symbolizes their burgeoning exploration of youth and romance amidst the complexities of societal expectations.
