A subtle pathos and hidden anguish underlie these stories of an average American life. One Thing That Can Save Us is for everyone who has learned that even \"the good life\" is inhabited by inevitable failures, sadnesses, and doubts: struggles over money, problems with children, emptiness, ambiguity, ex-spouses, war, injustice, and leaky faucets. With a wistful yet urgent lyricism and a delightful sense of absurdity, One Thing That Can Save Us continues the Coffee-To-Go Short-Short Story Series with literature that transcends brevity to resonate in the reader's mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.35 x 7.51 x 4.56 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 01, 1994\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47247070396665,"sku":"9781566890205","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/N0VHTzEwOTd5dzcxcHhER0xzZC9Sdz09_65ba66ca-5e73-495a-a268-4e04661779ab.webp?v=1768620835","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/one-thing-that-can-save-us-paperback-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
