{"product_id":"the-air-we-breathe-9781324065999","title":"The Air We Breathe","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn the fall of 1916, America prepares for war--but in the town of Tamarack Lake, the focus is on the sick. Wealthy tubercular patients live in private cure cottages; charity patients, mainly immigrants, fill the large public sanatorium. From within their isolated community, they grapple with some of the most thrilling scientific discoveries of their time--X-ray technology, chemical and biological weapons, changing theories of atomic structure--and their limitations. Prisoners of routine, they take solace in gossip, rumor, and, sometimes, secret attachments. When the well-meaning efforts of one enterprising patient lead instead to a tragic accident and a terrible betrayal, the war comes home, bringing with it a surge of anti-immigrant prejudice. With \u003cem\u003eThe Air We Breathe\u003c\/em\u003e, Andrea Barrett has crafted a \"majestic, breathtaking, [and] thrilling\" (\u003cem\u003eSan Diego Union-Tribune\u003c\/em\u003e) novel that brilliantly illuminates the inescapable heartbreak of war.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e W.
