{"product_id":"the-book-of-jon","title":"The Book of Jon","description":"With a seamless weave of letters, reminiscences, poems and journal entries, Sikelianos creates a loving portrait—and an unblinking indictment—of her father. Jon, a multitalented, eccentric visionary, emerges as a brilliant, charming, irresponsible, frustrating, and ultimately tragic hero.\nThis is a saga of the rise and fall of family lines—a tale marked by bohemia, Greek poets, intellectuals, drugs and homelessness. It is the story of eccentrics and survivors, the strength of personal vision and the nature of addiction, and what it does to families. An exquisitely rendered exploration of the harrowing and motivating forces of family, history, and individual choices.\nEleni Sikelianos’ previous books include Earliest Worlds and the National Poetry Series winner The Monster Lives of Boys \u0026amp; Girls. She lives in Boulder, CO.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0872864367\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0872864367.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Sikelianos, Eleni\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.
