Original, funny, disarmingly oblique and unique.\"--\u003ci\u003eThe Guardian\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn an unnamed city, middle sister stands out for the wrong reasons. She reads while walking, for one. And she has been taking French night classes downtown. So when a local paramilitary known as the milkman begins pursuing her, she suddenly becomes \"interesting,\" the last thing she ever wanted to be. Despite middle sister's attempts to avoid him--and to keep her mother from finding out about her maybe-boyfriend--rumors spread and the threat of violence lingers. \u003ci\u003eMilkman\u003c\/i\u003e is a story of the way inaction can have enormous repercussions, in a time when the wrong flag, wrong religion, or even a sunset can be subversive. Told with ferocious energy and sly, wicked humor, \u003ci\u003eMilkman\u003c\/i\u003e establishes Anna Burns as one of the most consequential voices of our day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anna Burns\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Graywolf Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/04\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 5.50w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781644450000","brand":"Graywolf Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42706966773897,"sku":"9781644450000","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_0511c690-71d5-43a0-a7a0-5965bd8951b0.jpg?v=1719471870","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/milkman-9781644450000","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
