"Basic Skills" by John A. Deft follows the journey of a group of individuals navigating the challenges of adult life while grappling with the fundamental skills necessary for independence. Each character faces their own struggles, from basic financial literacy to interpersonal relationships, highlighting the often-overlooked lessons of everyday life. As they come together in a community program aimed at improving their skills, they not only learn from instructors but also from one another, discovering the importance of support, resilience, and personal growth. Their stories intertwine, ultimately revealing the transformative power of education and human connection. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
