{"product_id":"9780999373507","title":"Turn: A Detroit Love Story","description":"\u003cp\u003eOlivia Nelson is sheltered from many of the realities beyond the borders of her suburban home by her parents, her middle-class life and her traditional community. She has an intense desire to move beyond those confines to learn about the relationships that make nature and people tick. Olivia’s quirky perspectives color her understanding. The person most empathetic to her uncommon take on the world is Max. He shares humor and stories with her and relishes their liaisons, but he has his own significant set of problems stemming from an abusive father. None of this stops Olivia and Max from seeking and testing friendship and passion and finding their limits in the process of coming of age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs they approach their launch into adulthood, Olivia and Max each attempt to position themselves for the big next step. Olivia readies for college and Max for the military. In the final weeks under her parent’s roof, Olivia makes the decision to point her life on an alternative trajectory – one that will dramatically impact her set of experiences. She chooses to move to Detroit and support herself instead of complying with her parent’s wishes that she check her impulses and curiosities and begin a focused program of study at a nice university. This choice shines light on realities previously unseen. The difficulties faced by working class people in Detroit become Olivia’s too. She also witnesses a capacity for corruption and injustice that includes people in positions of power, those close to her, and that which is within her.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTurn is a story of exploring and understanding a bit beyond the typical boundaries, making mistakes, and living with consequences. It is a love story of trials and endurance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Radial Creative LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47017896182000,"sku":"9780999373507","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780999373507_p0.jpg?v=1763960366","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780999373507","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
