{"product_id":"the-persistence-of-memory-and-jan-maher-9781943547043","title":"The Persistence of Memory and Other Stories","description":"\u003cp\u003eA dozen stories featuring characters aged 4 to 94, each dealing in some way with how and why our memories shape our current crises. Included in the collection: in the days just after World War II, a young girl tries to remember the man being introduced to her as her father; an academic denied tenure remembers how to land on her feet; a couple on their way to divorce think about the things that once drew them together and then drove them apart; an elderly man struggles to recall where the bathroom is and why his wife has been replaced by a stranger; a newly widowed grandmother remembers the joy of finger painting and answering to no one; and the title story, in which a great-grandmother proves that you never forget how to make a bicycle go even if you may need a crash course in how to stop one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jan Maher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1943547041\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781943547043\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Jan Maher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/19\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.31d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/2020 pg. 195","brand":"Jan Maher","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44890908983551,"sku":"9781943547043","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e6dff372-c3d8-4909-b16d-84a2e6429c13.jpg?v=1709740375","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-persistence-of-memory-and-jan-maher-9781943547043","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
