In this warped world saturated by advertising and materialism, where everything can be bought, from personality and physical traits to religion and self-fulfillment, Joanne and Farah, two very different women form a friendship both bonded in and ultimately destroyed by the manipulations of consumer culture. Joanne has everything the commercials say you should want--perfect body and perfect confidence, carefree, happy to excess. Farah occupies an opposite world, one driven by fear--self-loathing and jealous, germophobic, unhappy and malcontented. Through a shared metaphysical dream experience that spills over into their increasingly troubled day-to-day lives, the two women find themselves in a destructive cycle, consumed by their obsessions."--Provided by publisher. 500 $a "Originally published as Kochanie, zabiÅam nasze koty by Noir sur Blanc, Warsaw, Poland, in 2012"--Title page verso. 546 $a Translated from the Polish. 650 0 $a Young women $x Conduct of life $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Female friendship $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Popular culture $z United States $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Materialism $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Consumption (Economics) $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Consumption (Economics) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00876455 650 7 $a Female friendship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922609 650 7 $a Manners and customs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007815 650 7 $a Materialism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01011758 650 7 $a Popular culture. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01071344 650 7 $a Young women $x Conduct of life. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01183306 651 0 $a United States $x Social life and customs $v Fiction. 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726481 655 7 $a Satirical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02007227 655 7 $a Satirical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Polish fiction $v Translations into English. $2 local 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Paloff, Benjamin, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219011246.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BBE28C76586511EA978CCE3397128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
