{"product_id":"9780811228893","title":"The Famous Magician : 0","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe always astonishing Yoko Tawada here takes a walk on the supernatural side of the street. In \"Kollwitzstrasse,\" as the narrator muses on former East Berlin's new bourgeois health food stores, so popular with wealthy young people, a ghost boy begs her to buy him the old-fashioned sweets he craves. She worries that sugar's still sugar—but why lecture him, since he's already dead? Then white feathers fall from her head and she seems to be turning into a crane . . . Pure white kittens and a great Russian poet haunt \"Majakowskiring\": the narrator who reveres Mayakovsky's work is delighted to meet his ghost. And finally, in \"Pushkin Allee,\" a huge Soviet-era memorial of soldiers comes to life—and, \"for a scene of carnage everything was awfully well-ordered.\" Each of these stories opens up into new dimensions the work of this magisterial writer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product__accordion accordion quick-add-hidden\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdetails id=\"Details-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003csummary role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"summary__title\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003ch2 class=\"h4 accordion__title inline-richtext\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tProduct Information\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csvg class=\"icon icon-caret\" viewbox=\"0 0 10 6\"\u003e\u003cpath fill=\"currentColor\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M9.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708 0L5 4.293 1.354.646a.5.5 0 0 0-.708.708l4 4a.5.5 0 0 0 .708 0l4-4a.5.5 0 0 0 0-.708\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\r\n\t\t\u003c\/summary\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"accordion__content rte\" id=\"ProductAccordion-collapsible_tab_dDVEeR-template--25151688147283__main\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"metafield-multi_line_text_field\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yoko Tawada\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardback\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDate of Publication:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/11\/2022\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePagination:\u003c\/b\u003e 64 pages\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Storybook ND Series\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eImprint:\u003c\/b\u003e New Directions Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePublished By:\u003c\/b\u003e New Directions Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBook Classification:\u003c\/b\u003e Modern \u0026amp; contemporary fiction (post c 1945)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 159 x 237 x 13\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eISBN13\/EAN\/SKU:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780811229302\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\t\u003c\/details\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Yoko Tawada","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45813419475188,"sku":"9780811228893","price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/2180\/9347\/files\/9780811228893_26f418af-cc0d-4af2-b579-96dec2d4e479.jpg?v=1758370524","url":"https:\/\/mountfloridabooks.live\/products\/9780811228893","provider":"Mount Florida Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
