{"product_id":"9781590177877","title":"Totempole","description":"\u003ci\u003eTotempole\u003c\/i\u003e is Sanford Friedman’s radical coming-of-age novel,  featuring Stephen Wolfe, a young Jewish boy growing up in New York City  and its environs during the Depression and war years. In eight discrete  chapters, which trace Stephen’s evolution from a two-year-old boy to a  twenty-four-year-old man, Friedman describes with psychological acuity  and great empathy Stephen’s intellectual, moral, and sexual maturation.  Taught to abhor his body for the sake of his soul, Stephen finds  salvation in the eventual unification of the two, the recognition that  body and soul should not be partitioned but treated as one being, one  complete man.","brand":"New York Review Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175700971760,"sku":"9781590177877","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781590177877_p0.jpg?v=1763809716","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781590177877","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
