{"product_id":"francesca-alex-lago-9798990879102","title":"Francesca","description":"MILAN, SUMMER, 1987: THE HEROIN CAPITAL OF THE WORLD Sandro Lago is a teenage junky exhausted and adrift in Milan's seedy underworld of the mid-1980s, on the run from a killer, cops, a Milanese mobster, and his own syringe-inspired demons. Robi Johnson, in Chicago, wants nothing more than a fleeting escape from a tortured past, and figures Italy is as good a place as anywhere else. As Sandro and Robi's lives collide in the vibrant and turbulent summer of 1987, they will find solace in each other's pain, a brief respite from their shattered lives, and a desperate escape from the violence that threatens to tear them apart. Written in 1987 and set in the dying days of ItaloDisco, \"Francesca\" is a gritty and unsparing novel that captures the fragility of youth and the harsh realities of life on the bitter-cut edge.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alex Lago\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798990879102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lxmartini, Inc\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/21\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.53d","brand":"Alex Lago","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48801014219007,"sku":"9798990879102","price":16.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/francesca-alex-lago-9798990879102","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
