{"product_id":"9781778402128","title":"The Lost Supper : Searching for the Future of Food in the Tastes of the Past","description":"\u003cp\u003eWINNER OF THE 2023 KOBO EMERGING WRITER PRIZE FOR LITERARY FICTIONA GLOBE AND MAIL BEST BOOK OF 202249TH STREET EDITOR'S PICK FOR SEPTEMBER 2022A reclamation offemale rage and a horrifyingly deformed Bildungsroman.   Frances is quiet and reclusive,so much so that her upstairs roommates sometimes forget she exists. Isolated inthe basement, and on the brink of graduating from university, Frances herselfstarts to question the realities of her own existence. She can’t remember therebeing a lock on the door at the top of the basement stairs—and yet, when sheturns the knob, the door won’t open. She can’t tell the difference between herchildhood memories, which bloom like flowers in the dark basement, and herdreams. Worse still, she can’t ignore the very real tapping sound nowcoming—insistently, violently—threatening to break through her bedroom wall.   With the thematic considerations of Mary Shelley and Shirley Jackson’s work, and in the style of Herta Müller and Daisy Johnson, Tear is both a horrifyingly deformed Bildungsroman and a bristling reclamation of female rage. Blurring the real and the imagined, this lyric debut novel unflinchingly engages with contemporary feminist issues and explores the detrimental effects of false narratives, gaslighting, and manipulation on young women.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product__accordion accordion quick-add-hidden\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdetails id=\"Details-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003csummary role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"summary__title\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003ch2 class=\"h4 accordion__title inline-richtext\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tProduct Information\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csvg class=\"icon icon-caret\" viewbox=\"0 0 10 6\"\u003e\u003cpath fill=\"currentColor\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M9.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708 0L5 4.293 1.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708.708l4 4a.5.5 0 0 0 .708 0l4-4a.5.5 0 0 0 0-.708\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\r\n\t\t\u003c\/summary\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"accordion__content rte\" id=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"metafield-multi_line_text_field\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Erica McKeen\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDate of Publication:\u003c\/b\u003e 20\/10\/2022\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePagination:\u003c\/b\u003e 304 pages, Illustrations\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e N\/A\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eImprint:\u003c\/b\u003e Invisible Publishing\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePublished By:\u003c\/b\u003e Invisible Publishing\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBook Classification:\u003c\/b\u003e Modern \u0026amp; contemporary fiction (post c 1945)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 128 x 203 x 20\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eISBN13\/EAN\/SKU:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781778430060\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\u003c\/details\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Erica McKeen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54849192690050,"sku":"9781778402128","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/2180\/9347\/files\/9781778402128_cd87b5c3-25f1-4594-99db-a256f367446b.jpg?v=1758371421","url":"https:\/\/mountfloridabooks.live\/products\/9781778402128","provider":"Mount Florida Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
