Outside, he is part of a roving pack of kids with dominion over a derelict baseball field, weedy parking lot, and rusty jungle gym. Getting into and out of trouble is all-consuming. But the summer he turns eleven, he becomes embroiled in a staggering series of events reverberating far beyond himself and his family.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDevastating in its emotional precision, \u003ci\u003eA Tender Age\u003c\/i\u003e captures a family and community in striking distance of the American dream, and a young person on the precipice of adult knowledge, looking at his own culpability and looking away—then thinking about it for the rest of his life.","brand":"Riverhead Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47559962788095,"sku":"9798217048441","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9798217048441_s600x595.jpg?v=1780335822","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9798217048441","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
