The Aves

The Ave's invites readers to follow young protagonist, Zora Hunter, as she tackles the trials and treasures, the triumphs, of girlhood, sisterhood, absentee fatherhood, and most often the power of the Aves, a u-shaped borough that is her neighborhood. Additionally, The Ave's examines the lives of Ave residents while also keying in on a local death trap, an intersection without a stop sign, which victimizes Ave passersby and eventually results in the death of an Avenue child.
