{"product_id":"the-names","title":"The Names","description":"Set against the backdrop of a lush and exotic Greece, \"The Names\" is considered the book which began to drive \"sharply upward the size of his readership\" ( \"Los Angeles Times Book Review\" ). Among the cast of DeLillo's bizarre yet fully realized characters in \"The Names\" are Kathryn, the narrator's estranged wife; their son, the six-year-old novelist; Owen, the scientist; and the neurotic narrator obsessed with his own neuroses. A thriller, a mystery, and still a moving examination of family, loss, and the amorphous and magical potential of language itself, \"The Names\" stands with any of DeLillo's more recent and highly acclaimed works.","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48841237758157,"sku":"9780679722953","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/1529\/9533\/files\/imageloader_766a94a9-ae89-4271-ba4b-0e451b33331b.jpg?v=1792025715","url":"https:\/\/booksatmidnight.com\/products\/the-names","provider":"Books At Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
