Adrift In The City Or, Oliver Conrad's Plucky Fight is a coming-of-age story that delves into the struggles of a young boy seeking independence in a household filled with tension. The protagonist, Oliver, faces adversity from his stepbrother and stepfather, who embody entitlement and cruelty. The narrative highlights Oliver's determination to assert himself in a difficult environment, where he is often mistreated. A confrontation with his stepbrother marks the beginning of his fight for autonomy, as Oliver defends himself against bullying and stands firm in his values, despite being unjustly accused by his stepfather. Through these early struggles, the novel explores themes of justice, resilience, and the importance of personal integrity. As Oliver navigates the challenges of family dynamics, he learns to confront adversity head-on, setting the stage for his growth as an individual and his pursuit of independence. The novel emphasizes moral lessons on standing up for oneself, dealing with unfair situations, and the power of perseverance in the face of hardship.
