{"product_id":"affairs-of-a-cardiovascular-nature-terry-grimwood-9781913766030","title":"Affairs of a Cardiovascular Nature","description":"Terry Grimwood is an author who has made a name for himself with his very powerful, human and wide-ranging fiction, covering horror, speculative, dystopian and other styles. This mini-collection gathers together some of his more innovative and experimental short fiction from all across that range. The title story is a grotesquely hilarious, absurdist and very British tale of love, intrigue and the exchange of hearts that reads like a post-modern PG Wodehouse fever-dream. It is joined by a collection of miniatures in the form of monologues or dialogues, ranging from a dystopian sales pitch and the political horrors revealed through a farcically unnerving interrogation, to a quiet restaurant meeting where the topic of discussion could hardly be greater or more shattering. Affairs of a Cardiovascular Nature is an unusual example of British slipstream writing, a complex and bittersweet confection that deserves to be taken slowly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Terry Grimwood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1913766039\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781913766030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Eibonvale Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/14\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 62\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.15d","brand":"Terry Grimwood","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48873947169023,"sku":"9781913766030","price":9.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/affairs-of-a-cardiovascular-nature-terry-grimwood-9781913766030","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
