Life in the gheto was terrible, which goes without saying. Disease ran rampant, and food was exetremly hard to get a hold of. People were stealing from each other and there were always bodies on the streets, covered by newspaper, barefooted because their shoes had been stolen.

People would stand on the streets auctioning off just about anything, from food (even rats, which were commonly eaten, though not advertised by these street vendors as being rats) to shards of mirrors, candles or clothing. Anything was sold.

If you are interested in life in the gheto, I suggest reading "Milkweed" by Jerry Spinell
