{"product_id":"9781592997046","title":"The Photo Album","description":"\"The clichés of beauty are irresistible. It is usually (although I have to concede not always) some sort of affectation to pretend otherwise.\" A quirky catalogue of imaginary photographs K. B. Dixon's new novel, The Photo Album, is an idiosyncratic mix of character study and meditation-a glimpse into the life of a peculiar photo-enthusiast named Michael Quick and a questioning, if somewhat cursory, examination of his present obsession. It is a portrait not just of the photographer, but of the time and space around him. Also the people-his camera-shy wife Amy; his friend, the writer Ryan Richardson; his neighbors the Moores, whose son is mysteriously missing. A concise and unconventional wander, it is as much a comic adventure as a contemplative one.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Inkwater Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47133378838768,"sku":"9781592997046","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781592997046_p0.jpg?v=1763810207","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781592997046","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
