{"product_id":"the-shame-of-what-we-sam-gridley-9780978863647","title":"The Shame of What We Are","description":"The American 1950s--a simpler, more innocent age? Not for an awkward, nerdy kid like Art Dennison. As Art grows up with a father who can explode at any time and a mother who just doesn't fit the required role, his life sometimes feels surreal. The \"pieces\" of this slyly humorous, compassionate novel reflect Art's fragmentary experience in a family always on the move--from one temporary home to another, from East Coast to West, always seeking the elusive American dream.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sam Gridley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 097886364X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780978863647\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Door Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/29\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 199\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.48d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/19\/2010","brand":"Sam Gridley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48517574885631,"sku":"9780978863647","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cfa610e7-149a-4aaf-8bb0-595cb486dcaf.jpg?v=1778732150","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-shame-of-what-we-sam-gridley-9780978863647","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
