{"product_id":"nonfiction-a-novel-1","title":"Nonfiction: A Novel","description":"“Raw-nerved and plangent.”—The New Yorker\n\n“Entrancing.”—ELLE, A Best Book of 2024\n\n“Glitteringly painful.”—Rachel Cusk\n\nThis is definitely not a ghost story. But for a while after you’re gone, I see you everywhere. Every ragged young person sitting huddled on a pavement, every stretched-out body under cardboard in a shop doorway.\n\nTwo parents stand by powerlessly as their only child seems intent on destroying herself. As the mother—a novelist—attempts to understand her daughter, she finds herself revisiting her own uneasy, unresolved relationship with her mother. Weaving between childhoods past and present, laced with temptation and betrayal, Nonfiction: A Novel is an unflinching account of a mother, daughter, wife, and author reckoning with the world around her. But can a writer ever be trusted with the truth of her own story?\n\nClear-eyed, lacerating, and fearless, Julie Myerson’s Nonfiction: A Novel explores maternal love as an emotional foundation to both crave and fear. A hauntingly beautiful and deeply moving love letter from a mother to a daughter, this is a tale of damage and addiction, recovery and creativity, compassion and love.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1959030310\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1959030310.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Myerson, Julie\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: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
