{"product_id":"lamb-9780393317015","title":"Lamb","description":"When Brother Sebastian, nee Michael Lamb, runs away from a bleak reformatory, taking with him twelve-year-old Owen Kane, the media and the police call it a kidnapping. For Lamb, though, it is a rescue of a formerly abused boy from a place of no hope, a last grasp at an elusive happiness. But as the outside world closes in, as time and money run out, Lamb finds himself moving towards a solution that is as shocking as it is loving.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMacLaverty, Bernard:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eBernard MacLaverty\u003c\/strong\u003e is the author of five previous collections of stories and five novels, including \u003cem\u003eGrace Notes\u003c\/em\u003e, which was shortlisted for the Booker Prize, and \u003cem\u003eMidwinter Break\u003c\/em\u003e, shortlisted for the International Dublin Literary Award.
