{"product_id":"the-body-lies-a-novel-3","title":"The Body Lies: A novel","description":"A dark, thrilling new novel from the best-selling author of Longbourn: a work of riveting psychological suspense that grapples with how to live as a woman in the world--or in the pages of a book--when the stakes are dangerously high.\n\nWhen a young writer accepts a job at a university in the remote English countryside, it's meant to be a fresh start, away from the bustle of London and the scene of a violent assault she is desperate to forget. But despite the distractions of her new life and the demands of single motherhood, her nerves continue to jangle. To make matters worse, a vicious debate about violence against women inflames the tensions and mounting rivalries in her creative-writing class. When a troubled student starts turning in chapters that blur the lines between fiction and reality, the professor recognizes herself as the main character in his book--and he has written her a horrific fate. Will she be able to stop life imitating art before it's too late? At once a breathless cat-and-mouse game and a layered interrogation of the fetishization of the female body, The Body Lies gives us an essential story for our time that will have you checking the locks on your doors.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0525656111\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.0525656111.LN\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Like New\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Baker, Jo\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book can pass for new for a used price!  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Books for Life","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45588910538949,"sku":"LFV.0525656111.LN","price":6.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0650\/2914\/4773\/files\/0525656111-0_d5587304-992f-4263-ba63-c69b4eda1650.jpg?v=1767660651","url":"https:\/\/www.booksforlife.store\/products\/the-body-lies-a-novel-3","provider":"Books for Life","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
