Like Mark Twain and Flannery O'Connor, he writes stories that are consistently moving, wise, and funny-the literary equivalent of a trifecta. And also like those masters, he writes pitch-perfect prose that somehow manages to be simultaneously colloquial and lyrical.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 162\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.37 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 03, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52546387280179,"sku":"9781950413355","price":32.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/VXVDb1FMd0FLSk5keGpPMjlWeDJmdz09.webp?v=1760986625","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/music-for-hard-times-new-selected-stories-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
