{"product_id":"irish-goodbye-jamie-gegeny-9798535006130","title":"Irish Goodbye","description":"Joanne McDermott's got three months to live and sets out to enjoy it by laughing in cancer's smug face. But when her husband suddenly dies ahead of her, she's faced with the grim reality that her children will grow up without parents. Joining her in narrating this dark comedy of life are her younger brother, Sean, a chef, who lives with her in Connecticut, and their mutual friend, Chick, a heavy-drinking career student who lives in Canada and is denied entry into the States.\u003cbr\u003eThe story chronicles the Corrs, a large family spread across two countries, as they cope with the late stages of Joanne's terminal case, its effect on her two young sons and their future without her. At the heart of the tale is the friendship shared by our three storytellers and how their choices deeply affect one another's lives. Blending equal parts tragedy and comedy, \"Irish Goodbye\" aims to bring humour to some of life's more serious realities, including death itself. It pleads its case that sometimes there's no better way to cope than to laugh at how ridiculous it all is.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jamie Gegeny\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8535006133\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798535006130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.45d","brand":"Jamie Gegeny","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059079213311,"sku":"9798535006130","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dff40b86-331d-4162-9100-0e323f23dc9d.jpg?v=1685056108","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/irish-goodbye-jamie-gegeny-9798535006130","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
