Tickets will be limited. The concert date unknown. Nameless strangers join the line, jostling for preferred position. But as the seasons change and the kiosk remains shuttered, these anonymous souls evolve into a community. Bound together in their longing for something wonderful and miraculous, they allow themselves to dream. An utterly transformative work that speaks to the endurance of the human spirit, The Line confirms Grushin's place in the pantheon of today's most important new writers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Adult Hc\/Tr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/29\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143118558\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.69h x 5.10w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristian Century\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/22\/2011 pg. 42\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2011 pg. 36\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Olga Grushin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44273720524981,"sku":"9780143118558","price":18.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_c211c3d0-0775-49b6-9a00-58be3a46c05e.jpg?v=1718082188","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-line-9780143118558","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
