{"product_id":"blood-of-paradise-univ-pr-stephen-goodwin-9780813918778","title":"Blood of Paradise (Univ PR of Virginia)","description":"\u003cp\u003eStephen Goodwin's second novel is an emblematic tale of the sixties, of a sophisticated couple going back to the land. The restlessness that compels Anna and Steadman to move from the city to a small mountain farm in Virginia is brought into high relief by the cycles of the natural world, and by the arrival of Anna's demonic twin sister. Goodwin's prose, by turns stark and pastoral, outlines these struggles while leavening them with self-effacing humor and beauty. Peopled with hippies and mountain folk, artists and farmers both organic and traditional, not to mention an unforgettable child, The Blood of Paradise evokes an era through a sensitive and unstinting portrait of marriage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Goodwin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0813918774\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780813918778\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Virginia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/29\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 242\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.59d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2000 pg. 180","brand":"Stephen Goodwin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059830386943,"sku":"9780813918778","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dfa46fcd-cf9e-49d9-aecb-ab27aa1e36dc.jpg?v=1685060573","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/blood-of-paradise-univ-pr-stephen-goodwin-9780813918778","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
