Our guide is Claire, a nineteen-year-old who barely speaks to her bohemian coworkers but knows when it's time to snap on an antistatic bracelet. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eInterweaving the history of digital technology with a tale both touchingly human and delightfully technical, Shopsin brings an idiosyncratic cast of characters to life with a light touch, a sharp eye, and an unmistakable voice. Filled with pixelated philosophy and lots of printers, \u003ci\u003eLaserWriter II\u003c\/i\u003e is, at its heart, a parable about an apple.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shopsin, Tamara\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/11\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Picador USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250859037\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.51h x 5.07w x 0.60d","brand":"Tamara Shopsin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39952052486219,"sku":"9781250859037","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0021\/1697\/6715\/products\/img_e227e89a-2660-493b-8b09-e83e206fe15b.jpg?v=1674568937","url":"https:\/\/blackbookstore.com\/products\/laserwriter-ii-9781250859037","provider":"Black Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
