From iconic NBA All-Star Carmelo Anthony comes a raw and inspirational memoir about growing up in the housing projects of Red Hook and Baltimore--a brutal world Where Tomorrows Aren't Promised。 NBA All-Star Carmelo Anthony candidly opens up about his experiences growing up amidst poverty， racism， mental illness， addiction， and murder。 His story challenges America to think about the slim odds of a world-class athlete even surviving such circumstances long enough to be recruited by the NBA--not to mention the trauma and survivor's guilt he will carry with him forever。 Carmelo also shares the small beauties of human experience that helped him stay sane: the power of love， family， community， and education。 Anthony's courageous story of loss and beating impossible odds will resonate with fans universally。
