{"product_id":"the-wilderness-a-novel","title":"The Wilderness: A Novel","description":"The “stunning” (The Guardian) debut novel from the Booker Prize–winning author of Orbital, about a man who is losing his past to Alzheimer’s—also a Booker Prize nominee and an Orange Prize finalist\n\n“Closer to Virginia Woolf’s meditative novels than anything else I can think of. . . . This is . . . Mrs. Dalloway prose.”—The Washington Post Book World\n\nJake is in the tailspin of old age. His wife has passed away, his son is in prison, and, as Alzheimer’s takes hold of him, his memories have become increasingly unreliable. What happened to his daughter? Is she alive, or long dead? Why is his son imprisoned? And why can’t he shake the memory of a yellow dress and one lonely, echoing gunshot?\n\nThe Wilderness holds us in its grip from the first sentence to the last with the sheer beauty of its language and its ruminations on love and loss.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0307454770\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0307454770.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Harvey, Samantha\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: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
