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.","brand":"Graywolf Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47974609060029,"sku":"BS-TC0-450000","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0771\/9767\/2637\/files\/9781644450000-HD.jpg?v=1786395932","url":"https:\/\/boundigo.com\/products\/milkman","provider":"Boundigo Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
