The Summer Between is a metaphor for the struggles and rewards of living where origins, tempests and landscape inform our collective soul.In the spirit of Roddy Doyle's Paddy Clark Ha Ha Ha and Edmund White's A Boy's Own Story, readers will be moved by the touching circumstances of this innocent narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67889335730464,"sku":"USED0889712328","price":26.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/51e9GmE2qiL.jpg?v=1792539919","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-summer-between-0889712328-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
