{"product_id":"2940157448899","title":"Survived and Thrived","description":"This book chronicles the life of Mike Bruckner, a boy born to a dysfunctional family, whose mother suffered from mental illness. This is a story about a little boy who is hungry for love and at the very least safety. It takes us through his life as a child and how the abuse he suffered affected him in adult life. Mike is a survivor of a mother-son incestuous relationship. The trials of wanting to do the best for his wife and children and yet not now knowing how until he met a therapist who helped him fake it until he could make it. It's a story not so different from many others in today's society but delves into subject matter still taboo in the year 2016. It is a dark story, but also an uplifting one on how through hard work, love and determination, one can overcome terrible circumstances to be the person they want to be.","brand":"Page Publishing, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47173026709744,"sku":"2940157448899","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940157448899_p0.jpg?v=1764095050","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940157448899","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
