Dispatched from formerly fascist Spain, Bray offers a crucial meditative roadmap of the tragedy of the fascist present in the United States, and hopeful visions of a post-fascist future.","brand":"Melville House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48412414640383,"sku":"9781685893071","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781685893071_s600x595.png?v=1780933008","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781685893071","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
