{"product_id":"9780525562023","title":"On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous : A Novel","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Brilliant, heartbreaking, tender, and highly original - poet Ocean Vuong's debut novel is a sweeping and shattering portrait of a family, and a testament to the redemptive power of storytelling. On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous is a letter from a son to a mother who cannot read. Written when the speaker, Little Dog, is in his late twenties, the letter unearths a family's history that began before he was born--a history whose epicenter is rooted in Vietnam--and serves as a doorway into parts of his life his mother has never known, all of it leading to an unforgettable revelation. At once a witness to the fraught yet undeniable love between a single mother and her son, it is also a brutally honest exploration of race, class, and masculinity\"--\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Penguin Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49407855952099,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/3758\/6147\/files\/9780525562023-1.jpg?v=1788344090","url":"https:\/\/usa.kinokuniya.com\/products\/9780525562023","provider":"Books Kinokuniya USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
