Evoking these lives—and the country that shaped and nourished them—with artistry, honesty, and compassion, Rick Bragg brings home the love and suffering that lie at the heart of every family. The result is unforgettable.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47014450331888,"sku":"9780679774020","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780679774020_p0.jpg?v=1763607384","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780679774020","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
