Jacob Putnam is young and full of ideas. He's arrived a year too late to witness Czechoslovakia's revolution, but he still hopes to find its spirit, somehow. He discovers a country at a crossroads between communism and capitalism, and a picturesque city overflowing with a vibrant, searching sense of possibility. As the men and women Jacob meets begin to fall in love with one another, no one turns out to be quite the same as the idea Jacob has of them--including Jacob himself. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eNecessary Errors\u003c\/i\u003e is the long-awaited first novel from literary critic and journalist Caleb Crain. Shimmering and expansive, Crain's prose richly captures the turbulent feelings and discoveries of youth as it stretches toward adulthood--the chance encounters that grow into lasting, unforgettable experiences and the surprises of our first ventures into a foreign world--and the treasure of living in Prague during an era of historic change. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Necessary Errors | Caleb Crain | Paperback | 9780143122418 | Used: Very Good | Fiction 1627468","offer_id":50700073500930,"sku":"1627468","price":26.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/71ZslpJ2eGL.jpg?v=1791594809","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/necessary-errors","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
