{"product_id":"closeted-chelsie-hubert-9781096878643","title":"Closeted","description":"Closeted is the posthumous novel of Chelsie Hubert, a determined woman who died too young, her body taken by rare sickness and disease. Her first and final known work might best be described as tragic erotica. It offers a tale of cruel romance reminiscent of Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther, although its motif of unrequited lust is altogether unrestrained. The coming-of-age struggle and search for identity on display within its pages is almost Shakespearean in nature. Its conflict is centered around social breakdown, its central figure also fighting-in their own way-to be virtuous, only to await their inevitable downfall and dire end. The painstaking detail in which the internal crises and inner workings of its protagonist are described equally resembles the existentialism of a Dostoevsky or Kierkegaard, yet its content is far more disturbing, its forbidden themes wholly modern. Its harsh portrayals of self-discovery spill from its sentences and paragraphs like the heartbreaking ordeals of a Brontë classic but with a present-day twist. It is a quintessential read for those who see beauty in the dark side of life. Those with a penchant for the meaningfully deviant or perverse may find their curiosity satiated by its pages. Pessimists and cynics are welcome to its content.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chelsie Hubert,Alton Thomas Joyce\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 109687864X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781096878643\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/02\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 266\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Chelsie Hubert","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49162099032319,"sku":"9781096878643","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/closeted-chelsie-hubert-9781096878643","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
