This is from a novel.
An American woman thinks back on her young days when she went out on the streets in Manhattan, New York. She was a drug user and a prostitute, too.
She describes how the Village was a wild place and how she was cool back then.
She says "Jivin', man. That's how we used to talk."
What is "Jivin, man"? Is it a kind of greeting, like "Are you enjoying?"
