{"product_id":"love-in-a-dry-season","title":"Love in a Dry Season","description":"Shelby Foote's magnificently orchestrated novel anticipates much of the subject matter of his monumental Civil War trilogy, rendering the clash between North and South with a violence all the more shocking for its intimacy.\n\nLove in a Dry Season describes an erotic and economic triangle, in which two wealthy and fantastically unhappy Mississippi families, the Barcrofts and the Carrutherses, are joined by an open-faced fortune hunter from the North, a man whose ruthlessness is matched only by his inability to understand the people he tries to exploit and his fatal incomprehension of the passions he so casually ignites.\n\nCombining a flawless sense of place with a Faulknerian command of the grotesque, Foote's novel turns a small cotton town into a sexual battleground as fatal as Vicksburg or Shiloh, and one where strategy is no match for instinct and tradition.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0679736182\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0679736182.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Foote, Shelby\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: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43623955071037,"sku":"BVV.0679736182.VG","price":8.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/0679736182-0.jpg?v=1789421312","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/love-in-a-dry-season","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
