Although there has been much research on how youth become homeless and survive on the streets, we know very little about their pathways off the street and the many challenges that present during this process. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book relates the lived experiences of homeless youth as they negotiate the individual, sociocultural, and economic tensions of transitioning out of homeless and street contexts and cultures. Through interviews the authors gained privileged entry into the lives of youth in Toronto and Halifax over a year-long period. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThrough rich qualitative prose, quantitative elaboration, and comic-book narratives, participants spoke of courage, fortitude, strength, adversity, and at times, simple bad luck. Ultimately this became a story of fragility, complexity, living \"on the edge,\" and the (re)-building of identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeff Karabanow, Sean Kidd, Tyler Frederick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1771123338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781771123334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wilfrid Laurier University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/30\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.40d","brand":"Jeff Karabanow","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43984258236671,"sku":"9781771123334","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d32e569f-022a-4a3d-a353-852d5f7be65f.jpg?v=1683271355","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/homeless-youth-and-the-search-jeff-karabanow-9781771123334","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
