{"product_id":"2940193076223","title":"Always Outnumbered, Always Outgunned","description":"Introducing Socrates Fortlow, an ex-con struggling to find his place in the world after 27 years in jail. Living in an abandoned apartment building in South-Central L.A., Socrates is one step away from the streets. He bags groceries at the supermarket, recycles bottles and cans for pennies, and feels himself slipping toward invisibility-until he meets 11-year-old Darryl, who is perilously close to a life of violence and bloodshed. Socrates' determination to fight for and save Darryl lights his own pathway to self-forgiveness and possible redemption.    A lyrical and deeply moving work-read by Peter Francis James who perfectly captures Socrates' struggles-Always Outnumbered, Always Outgunned provides an unflinching look into inner city life and the soul of one man who refuses to succumb to the despair around him.","brand":"Phoenix Books, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46326214557937,"sku":"2940193076223","price":46.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5433\/7265\/files\/2940193076223_p0.jpg?v=1787865035","url":"https:\/\/shop.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940193076223","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
