{"product_id":"floridian-nights-lance-ringel-9781737669500","title":"Floridian Nights","description":"\u003cp\u003eAugust, 1988 - the hottest summer in more than a century in New York, a city shadowed by the AIDS epidemic. Gary Gaines is 35 years old and three years past losing, in the most sudden, unexpected, terrible way, the love of his life, Becker Barnes. And then again, he is not past it at all. One night, to forget their mutual pain, Gary and his best friend Julia Stern, an even more recent widow, venture out to a funky East Village restaurant. There Gary meets, in the most unlikely circumstances, Rick Fennell, a 22-year-old waiter freshly moved from the Midwest. Despite the generation gap between them, a relationship slowly begins to develop. But Gary cannot bring himself to take Rick seriously, and his tight circle of family and friends, all of whom adored Becker, share his skepticism. Abruptly, circumstances cause Gary to decamp from New York to his parents' home in Florida. As the days and nights pass, he is forced to face the consequences of his paralyzing grief, and make decisions about the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lance Ringel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1737669501\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781737669500\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Distant Mirror Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 346\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.02lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.72d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/29\/2021","brand":"Lance Ringel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44051637567743,"sku":"9781737669500","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_19b7579b-7bbd-4158-b10c-ce3caaef506c.jpg?v=1685014275","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/floridian-nights-lance-ringel-9781737669500","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
