{"product_id":"mordechai-schamz-9781564782465","title":"Mordechai Schamz","description":"In a series of comic vignettes and letters, Mordechai Schamz sets out to investigate himself, his world, and the language which makes them both intelligible. Dumbfounded at every turn and undiscouraged by -- perhaps even unaware of -- his failures, he confidently gets lost in the labyrinth of his investigations. Reminiscent of Flaubert's Bouvard and Pecuchet, Calvino's Palomar, and Beckett's Watt, Mordechai Schamz ponders the mysteries of life through cliches and solipsisms, making himself the master of the illogical and the clown of the absurd.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marc Cholodenko\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dalkey Archive Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 121\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.4lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781564782465","brand":"Dalkey Archive Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46858623746185,"sku":"9781564782465","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_74f82f7a-e835-45c8-9597-167af7ec0b6f.jpg?v=1780982709","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/mordechai-schamz-9781564782465","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
