{"product_id":"small-corners-in-a-big-city-9798887755861","title":"Small Corners in a Big City","description":"\u003cp\u003eEach story in this collection unveils a struggle with everyday problems in the big city. A bankrupt entrepreneur flees in the middle of the night, considers suicide, and then has a chance encounter with someone who provides a ray of hope. Members of a high-school judo club are tortured by the uncompromising regimen of the new coach, but a turn of events reveals the man's true character and qualities. A foreign student, successful as a long-distance runner, returns home and witnesses a phenomenal change that had taken place during his absence. A quiet young woman is dumped by her selfish fiancé-and ridiculed by her colleagues-so she takes revenge in a unique but clever way. A young employee at a prestigious business firm badmouths a homeless man living by the river but is then forced to confront his own biases. The problems and issues in these accounts give a multifaceted view of various sections and strata of the Tokyo metropolitan city. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-16544160\"\u003eYoshimasa Ogawa\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gotham Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798887755861\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8887755868\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC029000\"\u003eShort Stories (single author)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Gotham Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44689010622701,"sku":"9798887755861","price":21.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_b7582f8d-bde6-4642-be06-0ffb72643f4e.jpg?v=1703685245","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/small-corners-in-a-big-city-9798887755861","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
