In a New Jersey laundry room, a woman does her lover’s washing and thinks about his wife. In Boston, a man buys his love child, his only son, a first baseball bat and glove. At the heart of these stories is the irrepressible, irresistible Yunior, a young hardhead whose longing for love is equaled only by his recklessness-and by the extraordinary women he loves and loses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn prose that is endlessly energetic, inventive, tender, and funny, these stories lay bare the infinite longing and inevitable weakness of the human heart. They remind us that passion always triumphs over experience, and that “the half-life of love is forever.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49337051676976,"sku":"BDajd5","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/ajd5-Square-cover.jpg?v=1776282876","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-ajd5","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
