{"product_id":"at-home-in-the-world","title":"At Home in the World","description":"In the spring of 1972, Joyce Maynard, a freshman at Yale, published a cover story in The New York Times Magazine about life in the sixties. Among the many letters of praise, offers for writing assignments, and request for interviews was a one-page letter from the famously reclusive author, J.D. Salinger.\n\nDon't Go Away Sad is the story of a girl who loved and lived with J.D. Salinger, and the woman she became. A crucial turning point in Joyce Maynard's life occurred when her own daughter turned eighteen--the age Maynard was when Salinger first approached her. Breaking a twenty-five year silence, Joyce Maynard addresses her relationship with Salinger for the first time, as well as the complicated , troubled and yet creative nature of her youth and family. She vividly describes the details of the times and her life with the finesse of a natural storyteller.\n\nCourageously written by a women determined to allow her life to unfold with authenticity, Don't Go Away Sad is a testament to the resiliency of the spirit and the honesty of an unwavering eye.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0312195567\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0312195567.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Maynard, Joyce\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","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43399176585277,"sku":"BVV.0312195567.A","price":6.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/0312195567-0.jpg?v=1785015061","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/at-home-in-the-world","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
