{"product_id":"9781907704260","title":"Dockwood","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"There are few younger comics artists with whom I feel a genuine aesthetic kinship, but the radiant and glowing Dockwood is Jon McNaught’s loveliest argument yet for the beauty of just being alive. It’s a gem.\"\u003cbr\u003e-Chris Ware\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDockwood\u003c\/i\u003e is a small town in the Southeast of England, seven miles east of Brampton Moor. It has a population of 26,000 and is home to a bowling alley, a boating lake, and Willowbrook Outlet Village.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's a cloudy Tuesday in October and the residents of the town are going about their business as usual. In Elmsview Nursing Home, a kitchen porter dutifully prepares lunch for residents. Elsewhere, a council worker sweeps the fallen leaves from the pavements. Along Nettlefield Road, a paperboy is delivering his daily round. And in the trees, swallows gather noisily in preparation for their annual migration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this new work, Jon McNaught weaves together the everyday lives of three locals against an evocative backdrop of autumnal transitions. Bittersweet and contemplative, \u003ci\u003eDockwood\u003c\/i\u003e is for anyone who believes the stories that take place within life's small moments can often be the most meaningful of all.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nobrow Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47039551275248,"sku":"9781907704260","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781907704260_p0.jpg?v=1763620096","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781907704260","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
