{"product_id":"9780984273638","title":"Harvey's Lake \u0026 the Forty Page Poem","description":"Harvey's Lake \u0026amp; the Forty Page Poem is the first revealing glimpse into the life of the character known as Louise. Louise is the author's main character in her other novels; The Final Bath, and Into the Hands of Strangers.\u003cp\u003eDark and mercurial in essence and form, the story laps languidly over the shore of powerful, angst-filled moments and events. It is emotional, guttural, and yet endearing in its approach of telling the story of a girl's uncertain search for meaning in life. Black, like the turbulence under the still waters of Harvey's Lake, secrets are revealed. Some are released, while others sink into silent obscurity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe accompanying Forty Page Poem plays an integral role in Louise's life. It is both sensitive, yet volcanic in its intensity. Thoughtful and piercing-to-the-heart, the lyrical words in this poem play the soulful background music in the unfolding drama of Harvey's Lake. Written in the uncensored hand of a girl \"who has been 15 for so long,\" the tender verse reveals a very old soul trapped in the confines of youth. She would have to wait years to make any sense of it all.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sassy Britches Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49815938957552,"sku":"9780984273638","price":12.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780984273638","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
