{"product_id":"loves-unlikely-harvest-an-indiana-story","title":"Love's Unlikely Harvest: An Indiana Story","description":"In the Indiana heartland, where faith, family, and cornfields run deep, a boy’s journey to authenticity shatters his world. From a childhood of seeming stability, his confession of being gay triggers a brutal unraveling: his mother’s fist, his family’s attempts to exorcise his \"gay demons,\" and his exile from their Pentecostal church. Cast out and homeless, he navigates life from the front seat of his car, facing a world of harsh realities, including a devastating HIV diagnosis and the profound grief of his mother's suicide.\nThis is the raw, unflinching story of how the most barren soil can yield an unexpected crop. It is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of rejection, loss, and illness. But more than a survival story, it is a poignant exploration of the fragile, miraculous path toward reconciliation. Against all odds, the family that once shut him out begins a slow journey back, learning to accept the man they had once forsaken.\nLove's Unlikely Harvest is a deeply moving memoir that proves even in the aftermath of trauma, the seeds of love and forgiveness can take root, leading to a redemption no one could have foreseen.\nKey Themes: Memoir, LGBTQ+, Religious Trauma, Homelessness, Family Estrangement, Reconciliation, HIV\/AIDS, Suicide, Coming of Age, Indiana.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0FQSPHKN2\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0FQSPHKN2.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Isreal, Jacob\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\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":44525128482877,"sku":"BVV.B0FQSPHKN2.VG","price":29.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/B0FQSPHKN2-0.jpg?v=1794523128","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/loves-unlikely-harvest-an-indiana-story","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
