Hospital's characters oscillate between estrangement and intense connectedness, between a permanent sense of dislocation and a yearning to belong.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51856075194656,"sku":"NEW0393327523","price":28.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71qeTHmIe9L.jpg?v=1781546346","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/north-of-nowhere-south-of-loss-stories-0393327523","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
