{"product_id":"9781455509171","title":"Public Apology: In Which a Man Grapples With a Lifetime of Regret, One Incident at a Time","description":"Dave Bry is sorry. Very sorry. He's sorry to Wendy Metzger for singing the last verse of \"Stairway to Heaven\" into her ear while slow dancing in junior high school. He's sorry to Judy and Michael Gailhouse for letting their children watch \u003ci\u003eThe Amityville Horror \u003c\/i\u003ewhen he babysat them. And he's sorry--especially, truly--that he didn't hear his cancer-ridden father call out for help one fateful afternoon. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThings are different now. Dave's become a dad, too, and he's discovered a new compassion for the complicated man who raised him. And maybe if his 17-year-old self could meet his current self, he'd think twice before throwing beer cans on Jon Bon Jovi's lawn. Dave's apologies are at turns hysterically funny and profoundly moving, ultimately adding up to a deeply human, poignant and likable portrait of a man trying to come to grips with his past.","brand":"Grand Central Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47124352139504,"sku":"9781455509171","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781455509171_p0.jpg?v=1769908463","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781455509171","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
