gritty

1.The viciousness of a kind , simplehearted soul , like gritty sand in the rice or splinters in deboned fish ,can give a person unexpected pain.

2.Known for their realistic paintings of the working life of New Yorkers, the Ashcan School is most often identified with its depictions of the grittier side of urban life.
