{"product_id":"9780807083871","title":"The Meaning of Consuelo","description":"The Signe family is blessed with two daughters. Consuelo, the elder, is thought of as pensive and book-loving, the serious child-la niña seria-while Mili, her younger sister, is seen as vivacious, a ray of tropical sunshine. Two daughters: one dark, one light; one to offer comfort and consolation, the other to charm and delight. But, for all the joy both girls should bring, something is not right in this Puerto Rican family; a tragedia is developing, like a tumor, at its core.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this fierce, funny, and sometimes startling novel, we follow a young woman's quest to negotiate her own terms of survival within the confines of her culture and her family.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003emagazine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Judith Ortiz Cofer has created a character who takes us by the hand on a journey of self-discovery. She reminds readers young and old never to forget our own responsibilities, and to enjoy life with all its joys and sorrows.\"--Bessy Reyna, \u003ci\u003eMultiCultural Review\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Beacon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47020443566320,"sku":"9780807083871","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780807083871_p0.jpg?v=1763726301","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780807083871","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
