{"product_id":"9781925417050","title":"Postcards from Here","description":"\"Postcards from Here\" is a capturing of a community, a harsh and beautiful place, a family, and the internal experience of its author in the form of micro-essays. The book takes on the realities of rural New England life, the moments and details that stitch a community together, the politics of being gay and divorced in such a place, and the visceral details of raising children, gardening, porcupines, travel, marriage, and other hazards of living. Written in a coastal community at the eastern edge of the United States, this book works to transcend the Maine depicted on touristy postcards by crafting missives its rural residents might really send-what true stories this place and its people have to tell. The individual pieces in \"Postcards\" tell stories that are both intensely personal and entirely communal in scope, and as a collection they create a portrait of one person's attempt to do a good job at this business of being human.","brand":"Vine Leaves Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47063123230960,"sku":"9781925417050","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781925417050_p0.jpg?v=1763634875","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781925417050","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
