{"product_id":"there-are-little-kingdoms-9781555976521b","title":"There Are Little Kingdoms","description":"This award-winning story collection by Kevin Barry summons all the laughter, darkness, and intensity of contemporary Irish life. A pair of fast girls court trouble as they cool their heels on a slow night in a small town. Lonesome hill walkers take to the high reaches in pursuit of a saving embrace. A bewildered man steps off a country bus in search of his identity - and a stiff drink. These stories, filled with a grand sense of life's absurdity, form a remarkably sure-footed collection that reads like a modern-day \u003ci\u003eDubliners\u003c\/i\u003e. The winner of the Rooney Prize for Irish Literature and a 2007 book of the year in \u003ci\u003eThe Irish Times\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eSunday Tribune\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eMetro\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThere Are Little Kingdoms\u003c\/i\u003e marks the stunning entrance of a writer who burst onto the literary scene fully formed.","brand":"Graywolf Press","offers":[{"title":"Bargain","offer_id":42821353537616,"sku":"9781555976521B","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/8173\/5760\/files\/9781555976521-l.jpg?v=1785883348","url":"https:\/\/bookoutlet.com\/products\/there-are-little-kingdoms-9781555976521b","provider":"Book Outlet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
