He is the greatest exponent of \"dirty realism,\" a style that eschews metaphor to show the unfiltered life of the American lower class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical details: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0\"\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Anagrama\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,5,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"5,5,0\"\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cspan\u003e9788433920638\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,6,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"5,6,0\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,7,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"5,7,0\"\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback (Softcover)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Anagrama","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55846001082694,"sku":"Est2\/Bal5","price":11.31,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0797\/5590\/3302\/files\/Cartero.webp?v=1769083614","url":"https:\/\/libreriacasadrojan.com\/en\/products\/cartero","provider":"Librería Casa Drojan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
