{"product_id":"booth-1","title":"Booth","description":"Best Book of the Year\nReal Simple • AARP • USA Today • NPR • Virginia Living\n\nLonglisted for the 2022 Booker Prize\n\nFrom the Man Booker finalist and bestselling author of We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves comes an epic and intimate novel about the family behind one of the most infamous figures in American history: John Wilkes Booth.\n\nIn 1822, a secret family moves into a secret cabin some thirty miles northeast of Baltimore, to farm, to hide, and to bear ten children over the course of the next sixteen years. Junius Booth—breadwinner, celebrated Shakespearean actor, and master of the house in more ways than one—is at once a mesmerizing talent and a man of terrifying instability. One by one the children arrive, as year by year, the country draws frighteningly closer to the boiling point of secession and civil war.\n\nAs the tenor of the world shifts, the Booths emerge from their hidden lives to cement their place as one of the country’s leading theatrical families. But behind the curtains of the many stages they have graced, multiple scandals, family triumphs, and criminal disasters begin to take their toll, and the solemn siblings of John Wilkes Booth are left to reckon with the truth behind the destructively specious promise of an early prophecy.\n\nBooth is a startling portrait of a country in the throes of change and a vivid exploration of the ties that make, and break, a family.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0593331435\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0593331435.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Fowler, Karen Joy\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
