{"product_id":"9780999131916","title":"Theater District: Don'T Miss The Bus","description":"The cultural arts leaders of Houston have founded and funded an underground society to shelter the downtown homeless population while insulating their patrons from these same undesirables. The District ensnares Gabe Wagner, a nineties yuppie whose daily routine is upended by a random and reluctant act of charity towards a father and son. Life¿s little pleasures, such as wedding planning with his fiancé and a long Thanksgiving holiday weekend of family, feasting and football are quickly usurped. Gabe unwittingly crosses the members of The District, unearthing the covert alliance and the weave of its web. Their arrangement provides that the ¿Subjects¿ of The District refrain from soliciting the patrons of the arts venues and, in exchange, theatre organization funding provides ample food and shelter for the collection of local outcasts.His benevolent actions and subsequent encounters bring Gabe into direct conflict with the parameters of this contrived arrangement, culminating when a loused up commute leaves him, along with his betrothed, vulnerable to the enforcement arm of The District. A disenchanted Subject and an unlikely acquaintance aid Gabe along the way. Of particular aid is an exiled Founder of The District, who educates him on the roots and intricacies of his predicament.Gabe¿s mission moves from escaping this underworld to somehow ensuring that he is able to return to the place of his livelihood, which adjoins the realm of The District. Along the way his fate determines that of both the willing and the captive Subjects ¿ pitting their structure and comforts versus a yearning for a return of foraging free will.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eTim Wolter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eTim Wolter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eAug 11, 2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e256 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e0999131915\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9780999131916\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Tim Wolter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48499073089841,"sku":"9780999131916","price":14.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/products\/9780999131916.jpg?v=1710453449","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/es\/products\/9780999131916","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
