{"product_id":"love-and-other-disappointments-heather-paul-9781989689622","title":"Love and Other Disappointments","description":"\u003cp\u003eLike songs on a concept album, each story in Heather Paul's riveting \u003ci\u003eLove and Other Disappointments\u003c\/i\u003e stands alone and in conversation with the others. In this relatable, wry, and often darkly comedic collection, Paul manages to vacillate between sparse prose and lush description, employing tension and inventive metaphors to explore the emotional landscape of women at various stages of life and love. Each story asks the protagonist, and by proxy the readers, to grow, to become, and even perhaps to question expectations--both their own and the ones placed on them. An entertaining yet profound collection of short fiction for anyone who has ever loved, or been in love, and lived through the inevitable disappointment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Heather Paul\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1989689620\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781989689622\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Now or Never Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Heather Paul","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45065096659199,"sku":"9781989689622","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_50301fd2-a942-4583-9d94-95a079358090.jpg?v=1712125547","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/love-and-other-disappointments-heather-paul-9781989689622","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
