He argues that, as the quintessential living embodiment of the American dream, Bloom's career-path deconstructs the very foundations of American Protestantism.","brand":"Bloomsbury USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47142712443120,"sku":"9781441177636","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781441177636_p0.jpg?v=1763794460","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781441177636","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
