Pig Data fearlessly rebuffs the comforts of traditional form, revelling in contradictions, moving between a luminous tenderness and vulgar, incoherent urgency.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vegter, Anne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54057710813368,"sku":"9781913513917","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0509\/1953\/8872\/files\/9781913513917.jpg?v=1788883339","url":"https:\/\/octoberbooks.org\/products\/9781913513917","provider":"October Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
