{"product_id":"indigo-1","title":"Indigo","description":"In the Austrian state of Styria lies the Helianau Institute, a boarding school for children born with a mysterious condition known as Indigo syndrome. Anyone who comes near them immediately suffers from nausea and vertigo. Clemens Setz-a fictionalized doppelgänger of the author-is a young math teacher who loses his job at the school after attempting to investigate the mysterious \"relocations\" of several children. Fourteen years later, Robert, a former student, discovers a newspaper article about Setz's acquittal for the murder of an animal abuser. Could there be a connection between this story, which continues to haunt Robert, and the puzzling events of the past? DeLillo-esque in its exploration of alienation and anxiety, Indigo weaves together bizarre historical anecdotes, such as Edison's electrocution of an elephant, with pop cultural marginalia and pseudoscience to create a \"literary work that makes its own laws . . . rich in dialogue and variety, amusing and anecdotal, but also brutal and unfathomable\" (Der Spiegel).","brand":"Averdo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57605678170438,"sku":"9780871402684","price":23.23,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0852\/3081\/3510\/files\/f664daa9ffe7055d11dfcd4f0b2bdef28575aadef2051c35aae31faeb9d49467.jpg?v=1792086251","url":"https:\/\/www.averdo.com\/en\/products\/indigo-1","provider":"Averdo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
