Against this backdrop, the narrator endeavors to save a woman encountered by chance on the internet from becoming still another name without a history, another deracinated and disenchanted individual. In prose that is precise and engaging, as though shot through by a sense of pain both silent and inescapable, Pietro Spirito gives shape to an existential thriller in which there are neither guilty parties nor heroes, only victims and survivors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RUTGERS UNIV PR","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":67603376275746,"sku":"9781978841338-new","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/4755\/5618\/files\/9781978841338.jpg?v=1792988458","url":"https:\/\/www.albakireads.com\/products\/her-name-that-day-9781978841338-new","provider":"AlbakiReads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
