{"product_id":"9780985943707","title":"Afuera: A Young Latino's Journey","description":"Growing up isn't easy, and no one knows that better than Roberto. Raw \u0026amp; Gritty, Afuera follows Roberto, a young Latino man who comes into his own by being everything his tradition \u0026amp; culture tells him not to be. He struggles to understand \u0026amp; attempts to hide, that which is in his heart. From the outside, he seems to have the perfect life, but in fact, it's all a lie. In a dramatic turn of events, it eventually all comes apart, but through sheer guts \u0026amp; determination, \u0026amp; his willingness to succeed, he triumphs over this darkness \u0026amp; starts a new life for himself. Both a coming out story of a young man's difficult relationship with an abusive father \u0026amp; a look at modern teenage life, from school to sports to sexual conquests, Afuera shows readers - young \u0026amp; old, of any race - that even if they have a dark side, even if they don't fit in the way society wants them to, they have goodness inside of them, \u0026amp; all they need to do is let it out.","brand":"Proud Peacock Publishing LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47017631285488,"sku":"9780985943707","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780985943707_p0.jpg?v=1769915170","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780985943707","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
