His ideals remain strong, but his optimism is wearing thin. His fellow activists--computer hacker Jen Owens and Vietnam vet Irving Fetzer--still think he's a square. And their radio show can't compete with the corporate media. Parts per Million, Julia Stoops's socially conscious, fast-paced debut novel, is set in Portland, Oregon, in 2002. As the trio dives into anti-war protests and investigates fraud at an elite university, Nelson falls in love with an unlikely houseguest, Deirdre, a photographer from Ireland--and a recovering addict. Fetzer recognizes her condition but keeps it secret, setting off a page-turning chain of events that threatens to destroy the activists' friendship even as they're trying to hold the world together, one radio show at a time. 541 $d 20180518. 650 $a Communal living $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Interpersonal relations $v Fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l EBPE325 $d 20180828014317.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7CCA81F8AA8B11E8AF1A930697128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
