	Marxism message, Sol Yurick
		Sol's survey basically looked at the canon from the point of view of how ruling class attitudes are projected, from the Old Testament to Shakespeare.
		I suspect that Sol was being deliberately overstated and provocative, but he certainly had a way of making you look at things critically.
		Yurick made his seemingly prophetic remark at last week's "Unspeakable Practices III," a literary conference constructed by Robert Coover, adjunct professor of English, which called together more than 40 writers from around the world for five days of readings, performances and symposia.

	"The Warriors" fights on - Salon
		Yurick's novel is the basis, but not the Ana -basis.
		In the early 1960s, a one-time employee of the New York Department of Welfare turned struggling novelist named Sol Yurick -- trust me, this is all going to come together -- submitted a manuscript to his publisher inspired by his firsthand experiences with what were then called juvenile delinquents.
		During breaks in the ordeal, one of Yurick's characters, a kid with a literary bent, reads from a Classics Illustrated comic (the original graphic novels) about Greek warriors fighting their way through enemy territory to safety and sees a heroic reflection of his own sordid life.

	GAMES - GAME INVASION - Comcast.net
		Twenty-six years ago Walter Hill adapted the Sol Yurick book The Warriors into a movie, painting a disturbing dystopian view of New York City in which the streets were run by hundreds of young gangs prepared to take over the entire city.
		Tonight they're all out to get the Warriors." The movie, adapted from the 1965 novel by Sol Yurick, updates the city of New York, adding vivid and visceral violence and anti-societal behavior through the backstreets, subways and parks of New York all in one night.
		Yurick's book alludes to Greek figures (like characters Ajax and Cyrus) and based the story on the Greek model of tragedies, and Rockstar's story starts months before the movie, intertwining with the actual movie story about two-thirds of the way through the game.

	Old School Flavor and Bravery. \| The Warriors \| Sol Yurick
		However, Sol Yurick's goal is to portray the violence and banality of gang-life.
		Their desperate flight back to their native turf is a journey filled with murder, rape, and subway mayhem that will leave the awestruck reader at a new station of awareness.
		An exhilarating novel that examines New York City teenagers, left behind by society, The Warriors is Sol Yurick’s first novel, and it is a triumph of his imagination and skill.

		The movie tells the story of nine Coney Island gang members, and the girl they pick up along the way, who must bop their way back to their home turf after they are falsely accused of killing a powerful leader named Cyrus at a city wide meeting of the gangs in the Bronx.
		Yurick: In the book there is practically nobody in there who is white.
		Yurick: I thought the speed to which he got to the meeting was terrific, but once he had [Cyrus] making his speech, it all fell apart, because the guy was terrible.

		Sol Yurick is a great writer, and all of his other books, including "Fertig", and "The Warriors" are also brilliant.
		As is typical of the well-known Ecuadorian children's writer Edna Iturralde, in Caminantes del Sol she combines historical and ethnic accuracy with an adventure story that will enthrall children (and adults too).
		An Inca Coya is about to be sent to meet the sun when suddenly the mark of a puma paw appears on her arm.

	The Warriors (1979) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Yurick's inspiration for a New York City gang trying to make their way home through enemy turf comes directly from Xenophon's Anabasis, an ancient account of how 10,000 Greek mercenaries found themselves stuck in the heart of Persia following the death of Cyrus, a would-be usurper whose regular army was defeated.
		Sol Yurick's novel dealt with the social demoralization of gang life in a far more graphic nature.
		Stripped of such weighty material, Hill's movie is an energized urban adventure with colorful characters and dialogue that gets the most out of its simple premise, while putting an upbeat spin on a dark story.

	The Bag (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		It's a tribute to Sol Yurick's talent then that this remains such an impressive piece of work.
		The setting is the New York breadline, the twilight fringe of a rich society, where generation after generation of the same families find themselves dependent on what passes for a social security system.
		As Mr Yurick explores the labyrinthine structures of welfare, the lesson emerges that 'Organization with representation is tyranny' (p.222).

	Call Me Responsible
		At least, after 33 years, they've finally made a TV movie out of Sol Yurick's Fertig; it took them only fourteen years to make a big-screen film out of his first novel, The Warriors.
		Still, having raised most of the questions Yurick asked in the novel, The Confession fudges on his darker answers by turning Bleakie into a last-minute hero, as if the Big Fix were, instead, To Kill a Mockingbird.
		What this flawed but absorbing TV movie does suggest is that all Sol Yurick's novels deserve a film.

	Film Review: The Warriors: Director's Cut
		Writer David Shaber, Walter Hill, based on the novel by Sol Yurick
		But the film is also based on a Fifties novel by Sol Yurick and director Hill took a comic book approach to bring it to life.
		He was aware of the film's silliness, but coupled with the sense of adventure and episodic battles, a pulp fiction take could make it seem believable.

		Hill successfully adapted the moderately popular novel by author Sol Yurick who worked with the NYC Dept of Welfare in the 1950's.
		Yurick used the basis of ancient Greek history and the torturous trek home by Greek soldiers after their leader, Cyrus the Younger, was killed in the Persian Wars...and simply updated the setting to modern day NY and it's raging gang warfare embracing the five boroughs !
		Set amongst a hostile, nocturnal world of neon lit train stations, baseball bat wielding gang members and lethal, gun toting women "The Warriors" moves along at a frenetic pace with a fine selection of young actors taking the lead.

		When I first heard Noah Baumbach's name, sometime around the release of his first film, I immediately associated it with his father's.
		Growing up in Brooklyn in the 1970s and aspiring to become a novelist, I was excessively conscious of not only the provenance of literary writers in BrooklynóWhitman, Henry Miller, Norman Maileróbut of the existence of local talent trying to join the pantheon: Sol Yurick, L. Davis, Jonathan Baumbach.
		The fact that writers could be starved for recognition while working in the neighborhood reminded me of my father's life as a painter.
