Yet,  everything changes when their father finds a job in America - a land of  carpets and elevators, swimsuits and hot water on tap. Life is exciting  for the two brothers as they adjust to prosperity, girls and 24-hour TV,  until one hot, sultry day when everything falls apart. Darkly comic, Family Life is a story of a boy torn between duty and survival amid the ruins of everything he once knew.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cobham Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55491217850754,"sku":"9780571224548","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/4567\/2367\/files\/9780571224548.jpg?v=1753742097","url":"https:\/\/www.cobhambooks.live\/products\/9780571224548","provider":"Cobham Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
