{"product_id":"9780964115132","title":"The Least You Need to Know: Stories","description":"\u003cbr\u003eLee Martin’s own distinctive voice has the qualities of his favorite setting: the commonplace and middle-class turned over with a searchlight of want and need to know. Morticians and insurance men, salesmen and farmers; women hoping to make life more beautiful and less pressing with delicate, bewildering hobbies and necessary flirtations; boys who veer from shame to pride, from decency to irredeemable wrongs, in an afternoon; people who do not quite recover, during the time of our acquaintance, but do not give up gracefully.\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLee Martin\u003c\/b\u003e was born in Illinois. He earned his MFA from the University of Arkansas, and his Ph.D. From the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. His stories have been widely published in journals including \u003ci\u003eThe Georgia Review, Story, Double-Take, New England Review, Prairie Schooner\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eGlimmer Train Stories\u003c\/i\u003e. He received a Nebraska Arts Council Fellowship in Fiction (1995) as well as Individual Arts Fellowships in Fiction from the Ohio Arts Council (1987) and the Tennessee Arts Commission (1989).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sarabande Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47023324168432,"sku":"9780964115132","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780964115132_p0.jpg?v=1763874538","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780964115132","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
