{"product_id":"modern-art-9781883285180","title":"Modern Art","description":"\u003cp\u003eBelle Prokoff is the last of the famous generation of painters for whom art was a secular religion - worth any amount of struggle and sacrifice for its promise of redemption. She is also the widow of Clay Madden  who revolutionized American art  became a near-mythic figure  and died in a drunken car crash. Blunt  fierce  and scornful of the worlds hypocrisy  Belle has passionately protected her husbands memory in the three decades since his death. She has also persevered with her painting while the denizens of the fashionable art scene fawn over her not for her own work but for the valuable Madden canvases she clings to as the last relic of her tormented marriage. Now  facing the prospect of her impending death  Belle is confronted with another kind of threat: an unscrupulous biographer is snooping around in her past  working on a sensational book about Maddens life. Before her battle to silence him spirals out of control  she is forced to make her peace with people and events that have haunted her for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67932317679669,"sku":"ByrdShop_1883285186","price":57.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781883285180.jpg?v=1794223755","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/modern-art-9781883285180","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
