{"product_id":"9781550653427","title":"The Love Monster","description":"The Love Monster is the tall tale of one womanâ€™s struggle with mid-life issues. The main character, Margaret H. Atwood, has psoriasis, a boring job and a bad attitude. Her cheating husband has left her. And none of her pants fit any more.  Marston takes the reader on a hilarious journey of recovery. Hope comes in the form of a dope-smoking senior citizen, a religious fanatic, a good lawyer and a talking turtle (not to mention Christo and Jeanne-Claude, Warren Zevon, Neil Armstrong and a yogi buried deep underground). And, of course, hope comes in the form of a love-sick alien speaking in the voice of Donald Sutherland.  More than an irreverent joyride, The Love Monster is also a sweet and tender look at the pain and indignity of being an adult human and a sincere exploration of the very few available remedies:art, love, religion, relentless optimism, and alien intervention.","brand":"Véhicule Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47128606769392,"sku":"9781550653427","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781550653427_p0.jpg?v=1763753680","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781550653427","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
