These characters are 'poured out like water', characters deeply impacted by the \"poisoned blood\" of America, characters searching for their own little bit of comfort in the midst of personal and cultural collapse. These stories rattled my heart and will stay lodged within it.\" Gayle Brandeis\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1732403279\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781732403277\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Inlandia Institute\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.33d","brand":"Christopher Records","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43942909542655,"sku":"9781732403277","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_33594f68-1204-4faa-b4e2-72c6e5262f19.jpg?v=1681495071","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/care-christopher-records-9781732403277","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
