{"product_id":"9781804270387","title":"Mild Vertigo - Polly Barton","description":"Housewife Natsumi leads a small, unremarkable life in a�modern Tokyo apartment with her husband and two sons:�she does the laundry, goes on trips to the supermarket,�visits friends and gossips with neighbours. Tracing her�conversations and interactions with her family and friends�as they blend seamlessly into her own infernally buzzing�internal monologue,�Mild Vertigo�explores the dizzying�reality of being unable to locate oneself in the endless�stream of minutiae that forms a lonely life confined to a�middle-class home, where both everything and nothing�happens. With shades of Clarice Lispector, Elena Ferrante�and Lucy Ellmann, this verbally acrobatic novel by the�esteemed novelist, essayist and critic Mieko Kanai - whose�work enjoys a cult status in Japan - is a disconcerting and�radically imaginative portrait of selfhood in late-stage�capitalist society.","brand":"Polly Barton","offers":[{"title":"176 pages \/ 21\/06\/2023 \/ Modern \u0026 contemporary fiction (post c 1945)","offer_id":57459209994615,"sku":"9781804270387","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9454\/1624\/files\/9781804270387.jpg?v=1789549474","url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9781804270387","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
