{"product_id":"9781772141979","title":"I Am Claude Francois and You Are a Bathtub","description":"Stuart Ross's sometimes poignant, sometimes outrageous third story collection deepens his exploration of the possibilities of the short story and narrative. A trio of tales probe fame through the lens of 1960s-70s French pop and disco icon Claude François; legendary Hollywood actor Lee Marvin saves the day, again and again; the citizens of a small town worship an all-knowing potato; a man dons a bib to eat his neighbour's house; a tourist finds both love and a dead frog in Nicaragua; and, in one rather educational anti-story, the author instructs readers in the art of writing the short story. In I Am Claude François and You Are a Bathtub, Stuart Ross, a veteran of the Canadian literary underground, unleashes his arsenal of pathos, absurdism, humour, and cantankerousness.","brand":"Stuart Ross (CA)","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback Trade paperback (US)","offer_id":43104531218499,"sku":"9781772141979","price":18.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/3523\/2323\/files\/BNCImageAPI_9fd763d8-a575-4886-83f2-3f947114a73d.jpg?v=1775099681","url":"https:\/\/thebookshop613.ca\/products\/9781772141979","provider":"The Bookshop 613","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
