He drinks cheap wine; she cleans obsessively. In their two-room flat the tension rises and turns exquisite: the rent is past due, their careers have stalled, the regime is crumbling, and there's always the baby, the baby who won't stop crying.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntense and astutely ironic, devastating and darkly comic, Ivana Sajko's\u003cem\u003e Love Novel\u003c\/em\u003e takes a scalpel to the heart of modern married life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ivana Sajko\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Biblioasis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/06\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Biblioasis International Translation #44\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.80h x 5.10w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781771965989","brand":"Biblioasis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42707016712329,"sku":"9781771965989","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_515a5fda-10fd-4c8f-892a-4ef4168f130f.jpg?v=1719474657","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/love-novel-9781771965989","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
