New York City, 1929. Young Theo Sterlingâ€™s world begins to unravel as the Great Depression exerts its icy grip. He finds it hard to relate to his parents: His father, a Jewish self-made businessman, refuses to give up on the American dream, and his mother, a refugee from religious persecution in Mexico, holds fast to her Catholic faith. When disaster strikes the family, Theo must learn who he is. A charismatic school friend and a firebrand girl inspire him to believe he can fight Fascism and change the world, but each rebellion comes at a higher price, forcing Theo to question these ideologies too. From New Yorkâ€™s Lower East Side to an English boarding school to an Andalusian village in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, Theoâ€™s harrowing journey from boy to man is set against a backdrop of societies torn apart from within, teetering on the edge of a terrible war to which Theo is compulsively drawn like a moth to a flame.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shelf-Made.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52063879823688,"sku":"9781662528620","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/1260\/5000\/files\/9781662528620_685c4fd1-cf86-47a7-8f42-3d41b21b5d18.jpg?v=1764086227","url":"https:\/\/shelfmadebooks.com\/products\/9781662528620","provider":"Shelf-Made.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
