{"product_id":"death-valley","title":"Death Valley","description":"The most profound book yet from the visionary author of Milk Fed and The Pisces, a darkly funny novel about grief that becomes a desert survival story. In Melissa Broder’s astounding new novel, a woman arrives alone at a Best Western seeking respite from an emptiness that plagues her. She has fled to the California high desert to escape a cloud of sorrow—for both her father in the ICU and a husband whose illness is worsening. What the motel provides, however, is not peace but a path, thanks to a receptionist who recommends a nearby hike. Out on the sun-scorched trail, the woman encounters a towering cactus whose size and shape mean it should not exist in California. Yet the cactus is there, with a gash through its side that beckons like a familiar door. So she enters it. What awaits her inside this mystical succulent sets her on a journey at once desolate and rich, hilarious and poignant. This is Melissa Broder at her most imaginative, most universal, and finest. This is Death Valley.","brand":"Landmark Booksellers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44287263211760,"sku":"9781668024843","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/1385\/8477\/products\/content_c4254fc3-c63d-4105-b6c3-3b9d1c9c474f.jpg?v=1697153813","url":"https:\/\/shop.landmarkbooksellers.com\/products\/death-valley","provider":"Landmark Booksellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
