{"product_id":"specters-9781566568326","title":"Specters","description":"Winner of the Cairo International Book Fair Prize. Specters tells the story of Radwa and Shagar, two women born the same day. The narrative alternates between their childhoods, their work lives (one a professor of literature and the other of history), their married and unmarried lives, and their respective books. With her novel's structure, Ashour pays tribute to the Arab qareen (double or companion, and sometimes demon) and the ancient Egyptian ka (the spirit that is born with and accompanies an individual through life and beyond).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Interlink Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781566568326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.20w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/08\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2011 pg. 42\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/15\/2010 pg. 1227\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Radwa Ashour","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43075504898229,"sku":"9781566568326","price":12.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_a1823b6c-a96d-4a0f-8e7e-ae1dabe9f3f7.jpg?v=1691467596","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/specters-9781566568326","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
