One thing in my defence, not that it matters: I know what ‘nothing’ means, and keep on playing Somewhere out beyond Hollywood, hollowed-out actress Maria Wyeth’s life plays out in a numbing routine of perpetual freeway driving. In her early thirties, divorced from her husband, dislocated from friends, anesthetized to pain and pleasure, Wheth is a woman who has run out of both desires and motives – the epitome of a generation made ill by too much freedom. More than five decades after its original publication, Play it as it Lays remains a profoundly disturbing novel that ruthlessly dissects American life in the late 1960s, from the author of The White Album and The Year of Magical Thinking.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49664503742691,"sku":"DTRHCUK-9780008706166","price":85.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1778\/4925\/files\/9780008706166-cover.jpg?v=1788428234","url":"https:\/\/buybookbook.com\/products\/play-it-as-it-lays","provider":"買書書 BuyBookBook","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
