{"product_id":"2940013136168","title":"Nickels: A Tale Of Dissociation","description":"\"...a perfect genius that makes the impossible in expression, possible; the unknowable in experience, knowable\"\u003cbr\u003e--Anya Achtenberg, author of The Stories of Devil-Girl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNickels follows a biracial girl named \"Little Miss So and So\", from age 4-1\/2 into adulthood. Told in a series of prose poems, Nickels' lyrical and inventive language conveys the dissociative states born of a world formed by persistent and brutal incest and homophobia. The dissociative states enable the child's survival and, ultimately, the adult's healing. The story is both heartbreaking and triumphant. Nickels is the groundbreaking debut of Minneapolis-area author and artist Christine Stark.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the Reflections of America Series at Modern History Press www.ModernHistoryPress.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLearn more at www.ChristineStark.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFIC044000 Fiction : Contemporary Women\u003cbr\u003eFIC018000 Fiction : Lesbian\u003cbr\u003eSOC010000 Social Science : Feminism \u0026amp; Feminist Theory","brand":"Loving Healing Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47079203045616,"sku":"2940013136168","price":6.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013136168_p0.jpg?v=1763577436","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013136168","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
