{"product_id":"baboon-naja-marie-aidt-9781931883382","title":"Baboon","description":"Beginning in the middle of crisis, then accelerating through plots that grow stranger by the page, Naja Marie Aidt's stories have a feel all their own. Though they are built around the common themes of sex, love, desire, and gender, Aidt pushes them into her own desperate, frantic realm. In one, a whore shows up unannounced at a man's apartment, roosts in his living room, and then violently threatens him when he tries to make her leave. In another, a wife takes her husband to a city where it is women, not men, who are the dominant sex--but was it all a hallucination when she finds herself tied to a board and dragged back to his car? And in the unforgettable \"Blackcurrant,\" two young women who have turned away from men and toward lesbianism abscond to a farm, where they discover that their neighbor's son is experimenting with his own kind of sexuality. The first book from the widely lauded Aidt to reach the English language, \u003ci\u003eBaboon\u003c\/i\u003e delivers audacious writing that careens toward bizarre, yet utterly truthful, realizations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Naja Marie Aidt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1931883386\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781931883382\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Two Lines Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/14\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.00w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/25\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/15\/2014","brand":"Naja Marie Aidt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988065190143,"sku":"9781931883382","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3db5b82f-94d9-4ab1-a16f-ba40417d1a63.jpg?v=1683292421","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/baboon-naja-marie-aidt-9781931883382","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
