{"product_id":"9781595692306","title":"The Honesties of Love","description":"In this comedy of bad manners, the ill-matched parents of too-young newly-weds Billy and Ann Richardson politely collide in a series of encounters guaranteed to insure catastrophe, when a wry college professor, a glamorous real estate agent, a randy plumber, and a frustrated housewife politely face off on some social and sexual battlefields. The confrontations may begin politely, but they are guaranteed to end in chaos when a husband and a wife - not each other's - find themselves embroiled in an affair that proves to be equally passionate and ridiculous. What begins as a test between social classes ends in a series of sexual confrontations. Billy and Ann find themselves forced to grow up in a hurry to begin to accept their parents as people who are just as vulnerable as everybody else. -- Far from the pastoral romance of \"Winter Ridge\" (published by Mon­dial in 2008) and the grim landscape of \"The Prettiest Girls in Euphoria, Kansas\" (Mondial, 2010), Bruce Kellner's novel \"The Honesties of Love\" turns a baleful eye on the minefield of marriage.","brand":"Mondial","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47063868670192,"sku":"9781595692306","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781595692306_p0.jpg?v=1763813484","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781595692306","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
