{"product_id":"foursome-the-christina-baker-kline","title":"Foursome, The: Christina Baker Kline","description":"Christina Baker Kline \nA Novel \nHardcover \nFICTION\/Historical \/ 19th Century \/ General \n\nFrom #1 New York Times bestselling author Christina Baker Kline comes a boldly original reimagining of an astonishing true story: two sisters in nineteenth-century North Carolina—Kline’s own distant relatives—who married world-famous conjoined twins from Siam. \n\nWhen Chang and Eng Bunker arrive in Wilkes County in 1839, they’re not just a curiosity—they’re a sensation. Everyone is eager to learn whether the salacious rumors about them are true. Within months, the twins have opened a general store, bought land, and begun building a plantation. Now, word has it, they’re looking for wives—and in a place that thrives on gossip and legacy, their ambitions set the community on edge.\n\nSarah and Adelaide Yates, daughters of a once-prominent local family brought low by scandal, are drawn into their orbit. Bold, beautiful Addie sees in the twins’ fame a chance to reclaim her future. Sallie, quiet and observant, isn’t so sure. When the twins’ lives become entangled with theirs, they must navigate loyalty, longing, and identity in a world where everything—including race, class, and gender—is rigidly defined.\n\nSpanning five decades and unfolding against the backdrop of a fractured nation hurtling toward war, The Foursome is both intimate and epic: a story of love and constraint, identity and reinvention. With piercing insight and emotional precision, Kline brings to life a forgotten chapter of American history and the complex, boundary-defying marriages at its center.","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48945236705497,"sku":"9780063097995","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0783\/5883\/9513\/files\/19d726fb789429fbf15662d0612fda6157880b89ebbe62008f41ec0f07bd32c5.jpg?v=1783962979","url":"https:\/\/fableandcraft.co\/products\/foursome-the-christina-baker-kline","provider":"Fable \u0026 Craft Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
