{"product_id":"9781473665439","title":"Mama's Boy","description":"\u003cp\u003eRaised in a military, Mormon household outside San Antonio, Texas, Dustin Lance Black always found inspiration in his plucky, determined mother. Having contracted polio as a small girl, she endured leg braces and iron lungs and was repeatedly told that she could never have children or live a normal life. Defying expectations, she raised Black and his two brothers, built a career, escaped two abusive husbands, and eventually moved the family to a new life in Northern California. While Black struggled to come to terms with his sexuality -- something antithetical to his mother's religious views -- she remained his source of strength and his guiding light. Later, she would stand by his side when he helped bring the historic gay marriage case to the U.S. Supreme Court.\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+Dustin+Lance+Black\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eDustin Lance Black\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dustin Lance Black","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47377114529955,"sku":"9781473665439","price":325.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781473665439_55303182-ba93-4327-8661-e0ba30d095a2.jpg?v=1776544970","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781473665439","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
