{"product_id":"9781941040188","title":"The Sleep Garden","description":"The Sleep Garden explores and pushes the boundaries between fact and imagination, real and surreal, and life and the afterlife.\u003cbr\u003eIn an underground apartment building called “the Burrow”--essentially purgatory—“twilight souls” inhabit the space between life and death. Interwoven with their stories are those of inhabitants of the living world: a retired sea captain, a psychotic former child actor (possibly the sea captain’s illegitimate son?), and the technicians who monitor the Burrow, making sure its occupants have a constant supply of oxygen and food. Through all of their stories, and the ways in which their lives, past and present, intertwine, Krusoe creates a poignant story about what constitutes a life, what remains when we die, and what we possibly carry with us into the next world.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Tin House Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47049978085616,"sku":"9781941040188","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781941040188_p0.jpg?v=1769896925","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781941040188","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
