{"product_id":"severance-intercourse","title":"Severance \/ Intercourse","description":"\u003cp\u003eSeverance: The human head remains in a state of consciousness for one and a half minutes after decapitation. In a heightened state of emotion, people speak at a rate of 160 words per minute. Inspired by this, Robert Olen Butler wrote Severance, 62 vignettes each exactly 240 words in length, that capture the flow of thoughts that go through a person's mind after their head has been severed. Here are the imagined ultimate words of famous and invented figures -- Medusa, Sir Walter Raleigh, Anne Boleyn, Jayne Mansfield, and a chicken, beheaded for Sunday dinner. Intercourse: Delightfully reveals what goes through a person's mind at a crucial moment during sex. Smart, provocative, subtle, and erotic, each story is a many faceted gem. Butler dazzles and entertains as he channels the most intimate thoughts of 50 couples from history and myth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e No Exit Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781843447597\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"No Exit Press","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £1.00","offer_id":47917589758129,"sku":"SB-1843447592-C3","price":1.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/1843447592.jpg?v=1789163518","url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/severance-intercourse","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
