The bride is not all she seems and there is something ambiguous about the groom -- and just about everyone else at the surreal and strangely moving wedding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike a piece of music, \u003ci\u003ePassing Ceremony\u003c\/i\u003e is composed of brief, suggestive fragments that grow into a tightly integrated whole. There are bits of real and imagined conversation; polite dialogues that slide into mad comic banality; and scenes that could be quiet nightmares out of Borges. A satire and a rueful meditation on the ways people hurt one another, Weinzweig gives us a world suspended in time, an uneasy territory of the soul, which we all inhabit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edition features a new introduction by Jim Polk.\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 0.4 x 8.3 x 5.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 05, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47245760004345,"sku":"9781487002602","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/cnA1UlZNTmd4d1FFemJFL2IySVY1Zz09.webp?v=1768606542","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/passing-ceremony-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
