With a hastily baked pie in his hands, and a lifetime of guilt and insecurity weighing upon his soul, he sets out for the Prescotts' dinner party--a party at which he'd just as soon never arrive. Distantly inspired by the real-life friendship between the great historian William Hickling Prescott and his biographer, \u003ci\u003eTicknor\u003c\/i\u003e is a witty, fantastical study of resentment; and a biting history of a one-sided friendship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Picador","offers":[{"title":"Ticknor | Sheila Heti | Paperback | 9780312426637 | New | Fiction 1585917","offer_id":48163653583000,"sku":"1585917","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71J3Ik450RL.jpg?v=1771888115","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/ticknor","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
