N2  - Since the 1960s the South Bronx has been reduced to an archetype of the “inner city,” the exemplar of urban decay and of the cultural renaissance produced by hip hop. Peter L’Official turns to literature and visual arts to capture the history of a place whose truth lay obscured between the Bronx as symbol and the Bronx as lived fact
