{"product_id":"guide","title":"Guide","description":"Chris is a young porn star who wants to experience death at someone else's hand; Mason has lurid fantasies about members of British pop bands; Sniffles is a teenage runaway whose need for love outweighs his attachment to life. Courtesy of a frankly manipulative author\/narrator named Dennis, these characters and more move through a subterranean Los Angeles where hallucination and reality, sex and suicide, love and indifference run together in terrifying ways. Guide, the fourth novel in a projected five-book cycle, continues to explore the boundaries of experience in the manner that has earned Dennis Cooper comparisons to Poe, Genet, and Baudelaire.\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 0802135803\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780802135803\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Cooper, Dennis\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Grove Press\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Grove Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (Aug 1998)","offer_id":46081419247813,"sku":"9780802135803","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9780802135803.jpg?v=1776045996","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/guide","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
