In exchange, the farmers bribe Chuck with a portion of their federal subsidy. But when Joanna-a journalist who writes for a once reputable political magazine turned clickbait site-gets a tip from an anonymous source about the program's suspicious origins, Chuck has to cover his tracks by navigating the perilous political labyrinth. As Joanna pursues the story while fending off her employer's insipid \"outrage\" culture, she becomes romantically involved with one of the scandal's central players. Recovering from recent heartbreak, the philosophically-minded Joanna struggles to reconcile the inexorable conflict of interest between her devotion to her partner and her journalistic integrity. Containing suspense, mystery, wide-ranging philosophical themes, and ample comic relief, The Sorghum Saga depicts contemporary American politics and culture through a relentlessly realistic lens.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eugene Slaven\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798640692815\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/27\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.57d","brand":"Eugene Slaven","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49168205709567,"sku":"9798640692815","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-sorghum-saga-eugene-slaven-9798640692815","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
