{"product_id":"and-the-pursuit-of-happiness","title":"And the Pursuit of Happiness","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Penguin Press illustrated book in which Maira Kalman travels through American democracy after the 2008 election, visiting Monticello, the Supreme Court, and a Vermont town meeting. The paintings are the main event; the text is observational, meandering, and quietly patriotic. The production is handsome, with color plates throughout and the thick paper that Penguin Press uses when it wants a book to feel like an object. Penguin Press printed it on heavy stock because the paintings need the support. Ideal reader: the citizen who wants a civics lesson that looks like a sketchbook, or the illustrator who needs proof that essay and image can share a page.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vagabound","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48509836689620,"sku":"9781594202674","price":5.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0802\/5410\/7860\/files\/9781594202674.jpg?v=1787241903","url":"https:\/\/checkout.vagaboundbooks.com\/products\/and-the-pursuit-of-happiness","provider":"Vagabound","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
