{"product_id":"stained-glass-elegies","title":"Stained Glass Elegies","description":"\u003cp\u003eShūsaku Endō's Stained Glass Elegies is a collection of stories by the Japanese Catholic writer best known for Silence. The stories examine faith, failure, and the small compromises that accumulate into moral exhaustion. Endō is patient with his characters and unsparing about the institutions that fail them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDodd, Mead's edition presents the collection in a modest hardcover format, translated by Van C. Gessel. The stories are slender and meditative, the kind of fiction that rewards a reader willing to sit with uncertainty. For those who prefer their spiritual questions left unanswered in good company.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vagabound","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48479531499732,"sku":"0396091474","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0802\/5410\/7860\/files\/9780396091479.webp?v=1786814504","url":"https:\/\/checkout.vagaboundbooks.com\/products\/stained-glass-elegies","provider":"Vagabound","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
