{"product_id":"poor-white-sherwood-anderson-9781979143219","title":"Poor White","description":"Hugh McVey moves from Missouri to the agrarian town of Bidwell, Ohio. He invents a mechanical cabbage planter to ease the burden of famers, but an investor in town exploits his product, which fails to succeed. His next invention, a corn cutter, makes him a millionaire and transforms Bidwell into a center of manufacturing. McVey, perennially lonely and ruminative, meets Clara Butterworth, who attends college at nearby Ohio State and is perennially harassed by her potential matches. Published one year after Winesburg, Ohio, in 1920, Poor White has a modernist style, an realist attention to every day life, and an eerily contemporary resonance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sherwood Anderson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1979143218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781979143219\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/16\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.31d","brand":"Sherwood Anderson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43984050913535,"sku":"9781979143219","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d1939fb2-15d3-49bb-a87a-b7e2d1822cf4.jpg?v=1683270213","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/poor-white-sherwood-anderson-9781979143219","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
