{"product_id":"salton-sea-george-mccormick-9781934819241","title":"Salton Sea","description":"Fiction. These are stories of the American West, a 21st century West where everyone works a shit job; whose denizens know all too well that the dreams they've dreamt of that place are just that, dreams; where the natural world has all but disappeared--often because we refuse to look up and see it. Like the inland sea that gives this collection its name, whose algae blooms 'cumulous, bloody forms just under the surface, ' there is beauty in their ruin.--Bayard Godsave\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGeorge McCormick's writing as clear and direct as a fast-moving river, but the lives of his characters never run straight. As his narrator tells us, 'In the West what we love most are lies. What we love are images of a stampede, of animals running; of what we think are the right stories of stealing away.' Don't let these marvelous stories slip past you.--Jesse Lee Kercheval\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George McCormick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1934819247\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781934819241\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Noemi Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.50h x 5.50w x 0.50d","brand":"George McCormick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46199018782975,"sku":"9781934819241","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_541da75a-a596-47db-b6e0-21d5000c35af.jpg?v=1727924802","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/salton-sea-george-mccormick-9781934819241","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
