{"product_id":"9781594482311","title":"The Ruins of California","description":"\u003cp\u003eFor the Ruin family in 1970s California, as described by the precocious young Inez, life is complex. Her father, Paul, is self-obsessed, intrusive, and brilliant. He's also twice divorced, leaving Inez to bounce between two worlds and embracing neither-that of Paul's bohemian life in San Francisco and the more sedate world of her mother Connie, a Latin bombshell who plays tennis and attends EST seminars in the suburbs. As Inez progresses through high school we are witness to a remarkable family saga that renders a strange and fascinating slice of America in transition-one like the Ruins of California themselves, at once bold and innocent, creative and chaotic, obsessed and liberating.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49706486694136,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":48.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/8208\/6904\/files\/9781594482311-1.jpg?v=1783723052","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.au\/products\/9781594482311","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
