{"product_id":"9780795704086","title":"Life Underwater","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this fifth novel by the award-winning poet and writer Ken Barris, life in the 1960s in Port Elizabeth comes under the microscope. Life Underwater tells the story of the three Machabeus brothers: Jude, Simon and younger Eli, first as children and teenagers, and then as grown men upon the death of their father. While there may be nothing new under the sun, in the hands of a writer as skilled as Barris the material of family life is here wrought into something compelling, beautiful and visceral - magnifying the tragedies, and singular triumphs, of the everyday.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Ken+Barris\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eKen Barris\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ken Barris","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47375702491299,"sku":"9780795704086","price":265.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9780795704086_7b38a7d7-9931-4e01-b11f-3742480059a5.jpg?v=1776496672","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9780795704086","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
