These stories deal with the vulnerability of well-intentioned people and the ephemeral 'units of measure' that are part of how we see the world. The personal touches on the universal with Burke's seemingly ordinary characters; they have much to show us about our own foibles and about how we live every day in that space between the ideal and the real.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nancy Burke\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1627205055\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781627205054\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Apprentice House\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.61d","brand":"Nancy Burke","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44761143312639,"sku":"9781627205054","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ade89ff8-6d39-4cc9-9cd7-d62994a5e9a3.jpg?v=1706680495","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/death-cleaning-and-other-units-nancy-burke-9781627205054","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
