The natural descendent of characters like Huckleberry Finn and Holden Caufield, Korean-American Jeon-Gi is torn between competing ideas of himself. At home, his working-class parents dote on him. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eDevastating in its emotional precision, A Tender Age 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eAuthor: Chang-rae Lee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eFormat: Hardrback\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003ePages: 368\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eDimensions: 8.6 in H | 5.7 in W | 1.2 in T\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eOn sale date: August 11, 2026\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003ePublisher: Riverhead Books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Riverhead Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50322449727702,"sku":"9798217048441","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/6649\/7238\/files\/ATenderAge.jpg?v=1787695253","url":"https:\/\/telegraphhillbooks.com\/products\/a-tender-age","provider":"Telegraph Hill Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
