Karr's comic childhood in an east Texas oil town brings us characters as darkly hilarious as any of J. D. Salinger's--a hard-drinking daddy, a sister who can talk down the sheriff at age twelve, and an oft-married mother whose accumulated secrets threaten to destroy them all. This unsentimental and profoundly moving account of an apocalyptic childhood is as \"funny, lively, and un-put-downable\" (\u003ci\u003eUSA Today\u003c\/i\u003e) today as it ever was.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Karr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0143035746\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143035749\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/31\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.08w x 0.64d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eIngram Advance\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2005 pg. 57\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/06\/2009 pg. 61","brand":"Mary Karr","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44052397916415,"sku":"9780143035749","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b9930738-ac23-42b7-855c-1ece492e5778.jpg?v=1685018569","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-liars-club-mary-karr-9780143035749","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
