{"product_id":"dog-boy-and-other-harrowing-huberty-erica-lynn-huberty-9781450223300","title":"Dog Boy and Other Harrowing Tales","description":"Haunting, varied, and superbly written, Dog Boy and Other Harrowing Tales is a collection of stories immersed in the Gothic tradition yet told in a modern and inventive way. At the end of the First World War, a group of friends gather at a former Robber Baron estate on Eastern Long Island, only to learn the house holds a monstrous secret. In a Montana prison in 1988, a new dog training program goes awry with horrifying results. A Parisian cemetery in the mid-20th century is home to the ghosts of two centuries of poets, artists, and composers, the specters of a homeless woman's past, and the jolting reality of the modern world. Knitting together the ordinary, the extraordinary, and the supernatural, Dog Boy and Other Harrowing Tales is a boldly imagined literary work by a masterful new storyteller. \"At a time when most authors of contemporary literature seem obsessed with humor and shying away from documenting the painful aspects of our existence, Erica-Lynn Huberty [has written] a book of stories whose immediate goal is not to entertain or humor us, but to liberate us from this desire...\" -Mohammed Naseehu Ali, author of The Prophet of Zongo Street \"... a distinctly American investigation of the emotional corners into which people retreat to pass their lives...\" -Hilary Thayer Hamann, author of Anthropology of an American Girl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Huberty Erica-Lynn Huberty\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1450223303\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781450223300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/26\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.33d","brand":"Huberty Erica-Lynn Huberty","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48013933740287,"sku":"9781450223300","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5a27f7a5-581d-4c27-8399-75ef9ec82039.jpg?v=1767745677","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dog-boy-and-other-harrowing-huberty-erica-lynn-huberty-9781450223300","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
