{"product_id":"freshwater","title":"Freshwater","description":"A National Book Foundation “5 Under 35” Honoree\nFinalist for the PEN\/Hemingway Award for a Debut Novel\nShortlisted for the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize\nA New York Times Notable Book\nThe astonishing debut novel from the acclaimed bestselling author of The Death of Vivek Oji, You Made a Fool of Death with Your Beauty, and Pet.\nFreshwater tells the story of Ada, an unusual child who is a source of deep concern to her southern Nigerian family. Young Ada is troubled, prone to violent fits. Born “with one foot on the other side,” she begins to develop separate selves within her as she grows into adulthood. And when she travels to America for college, a traumatic event on campus crystallizes the selves into something powerful and potentially dangerous, making Ada fade into the background of her own mind as these alters—now protective, now hedonistic—move into control.\nWritten with stylistic brilliance and based in the author’s realities, Freshwater dazzles with ferocious energy and serpentine grace.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0802128998\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0802128998.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Emezi, Akwaeke\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\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: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
