{"product_id":"artifact-arlene-heyman-9781526619426","title":"Artifact","description":"'A wise, intimate tale that is by turns joyful, sorrowful and explicit' Observer\n'The author delves deep into Lottie’s psyche, shying away from nothing, to create a rounded and gripping portrait of a woman on the edge of change’ Daily Mail\nLottie Kristin is independent from the start. Born in the middle of the century to a middle-class family in the very middle of America, Lottie is set apart by her smarts and sensuality. A girl who'd rather carry out dissections on a snowy back porch than join her family for Christmas dinner is a strange and exotic artifact in the town of Sleeping Bay.\nBut by her early twenties, Lottie finds herself trapped in a marriage gone stale, with a daughter she adores but whose existence jeopardizes her place in the lab and her dream of becoming a scientist. How can a young woman make her way in a world determined to contain her brilliance, her will, and her longing to live?\nBravely and wisely written, Artifact is an intimate and propulsive portrait of a whole woman, a celebration of her refusal to be defined by others’ imaginations, and a meditation on the glorious chaos of biological life.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51220495761696,"sku":"9781526619426","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781526619426.jpg?v=1780956759","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/artifact-arlene-heyman-9781526619426","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
