{"product_id":"9781468313628","title":"Gorsky: A Novel","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn enchanting love storya tale of cultural corruption, fine art, and great books amidst London's super-wealthy Russian immigrant community.\u003cbr\u003eOn a rainy afternoon in London’s old Chelsea, a charming multi-billionaire Russian oligarch, Gorsky, walks into an ailing bookshop and writes the first of several quarter-of-a-million pound checks. With that money, Gorsky has tasked Nikola, the store’s bored and brilliant clerk, with sourcing books for a massive personal library, which which will be housed in the magnificent, palatial home Gorsky happens to be building immediately next to Nikola’s own modest dwelling. Gorsky needs a tasteful collection of Russian literature to woo a long-lost loveno matter that she happens to be married to an Englishman. His passion for her surpasses even his immeasurable wealth, and Nikola will be drawn into a world of opulence, greed, capitalism, sex, and beauty as he helps Gorsky pursue this doomed love. Charmingly written and inspired by The Great Gatsby, Gorsky is a vicarious thrillan ode to cosmopolitan taste and a brilliant reimagining of a powerful classic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Overlook Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47037635428592,"sku":"9781468313628","price":11.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781468313628_p0.jpg?v=1763696152","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781468313628","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
