{"product_id":"perfect-little-world-a-novel","title":"Perfect Little World: A Novel","description":"Wilson’s\nambition alone is exciting. . . . [His] writing has a Houdini-like perfection,\nwherein no matter how grim the variables, each lovely sentence manages to\nescape with all its parts intact.” —Boston\nGlobe\nThe eagerly-anticipated follow-up\nto the New York Times bestseller The Family Fang—a warm-hearted\nand moving story about a young woman making a family on her own terms.\nWhen Isabelle Poole meets Dr.\nPreston Grind, she’s fresh out of high school, pregnant with her art teacher's\nbaby, and totally on her own. Izzy knows she can be a good mother but without\nany money or relatives to help, she’s left searching.\n\nDr. Grind, an awkwardly charming child psychologist, has spent his life\nstudying family, even after tragedy struck his own. Now, with the help of\nan eccentric billionaire, he has the chance to create a “perfect little\nworld”—to study what would happen when ten children are raised collectively,\nwithout knowing who their biological parents are. He calls it The\nInfinite Family Project and he wants Izzy and her son to join.\n\nThis attempt at a utopian ideal starts off promising, but soon the gentle\nequilibrium among the families disintegrates: unspoken resentments between the\ncouples begin to fester; the project's funding becomes tenuous; and Izzy’s\ngrowing feelings for Dr. Grind make her question her participation in this\nstrange experiment in the first place.\n\nWritten with the same compassion and charm that won over legions of readers\nwith The Family Fang,\nKevin Wilson shows us with grace and humor that the best families are the ones\nwe make for ourselves.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0062450328\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0062450328.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Wilson, Kevin\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: Former library book with the usual stamps, stickers and labels.
