{"product_id":"cities-of-the-absurd-kenneth-francis-9798888703847","title":"Cities of the Absurd: Strange Tales from the Dark Metropolis","description":"This anthology of fictional short stories, by Kenneth Francis, follows curious moments in the lives of alienated characters confronted in a moral maze of theological, technological, and existential angst in dark places where AI hologram ghosts malfunction, lucid dreams become nightmares, and murderous misfits attack the innocents. These journeys into the black-and-white nights that meander through suicide alleyways are set in and around the edge of the cities with nocturnal themes ranging from surrealism, black humour; a kind of literary narrative with Noir Fiction hints of psychedelia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kenneth Francis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798888703847\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e En Route Books \u0026amp; Media\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.32d","brand":"Kenneth Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48801100923135,"sku":"9798888703847","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cities-of-the-absurd-kenneth-francis-9798888703847","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
