{"product_id":"winged-shoes-and-a-shield","title":"Winged Shoes and a Shield","description":"\"A walking badass of a book.\"--Rolling Stone  \"Don is a great writer. His work is worth reading.\" -- Henry Rollins  Hallucinating between childhood and manhood, Eddie Burnett is both hero and anti-hero in this hard-hitting collection of linked stories. Coming of age in California's post-war suburbs and freefalling through the turbulence of the sixties and early seventies, Eddie's transformation from a boy's innocence to a man's hardened wariness is captured in lyrical, emotionally raw episodes. He navigates the minefields of American masculinity in a series of disturbing, yet strangely uplifting odysseys, from hope to despair and back again. Author, screenwriter, actor, and performer Don Bajema lives in New York City.","brand":"City Lights Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54253044891992,"sku":"9780872865884","price":18.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780872865884.jpg?v=1765279809","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/winged-shoes-and-a-shield","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
