{"product_id":"forgiveness-vincent-burke-9781977244055","title":"Forgiveness: A Gay Man's Memoir","description":"...evocative and moving...entertaining...riveting-Kirkus Reviews Vivid memories of an assault by his boss at age 16, of being cornered and trapped by young thugs, of fleeing the police, of a big bank error in his favor... This is the tell-all account of Vince Burke's exceptional life that rose from his father's abandonment. To escape anti-gay bias, he went undercover in his glamour careers as a newsman, a Madison Avenue adman, a Manhattan landlord. Now he's discovered a new emotion: forgiveness, and he offers letters of forgiveness for past prejudice. Burke exposes his adventures on enigmatic Fire Island. He admits to anti-social opinions. He lived everywhere: Greenwich Village, the Hamptons, Provincetown, the UK, in a 26-room chateau in the countryside of France. We meet magnificent people, and a few evil ones. Finally, Burke proclaims his life, \"86 years worth living.\" \"...engaging...poignant...worthy of acclaim.\" 4 of 4 stars-Online Book Club\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vincent Burke\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 197724405X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781977244055\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Outskirts Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/30\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.76d","brand":"Vincent Burke","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44042787881215,"sku":"9781977244055","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4ffc78c5-b9a8-4f6c-8c47-3285450e651e.jpg?v=1684963538","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/forgiveness-vincent-burke-9781977244055","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
