{"product_id":"such-a-good-man-9780299352448","title":"Such a Good Man","description":"In these inventive and formally daring stories, Dustin M. Hoffman shines a light into the dark corners of American suburbia. The housepainters, contractors, formerly incarcerated carnival workers, and fathers that populate these pages are doing their best to overcome life's brutal indifference. With brilliance and perception, Hoffman interrogates the intersections of labor and masculinity, peeling back the spackled facades of class, family, and domesticity. \u003ci\u003eSuch a Good Man\u003c\/i\u003e depicts darkness, cruelty, and absurdity without flinching--and reveals the eternal human desire for intimacy, especially when it remains just out of reach.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10180327\"\u003eDustin M.
