{"product_id":"the-cattle-killing","title":"The Cattle Killing","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn plague-ridden eighteenth-century Philadelphia, a young itinerant black preacher searches for a mysterious, endangered African woman. His struggle to find her and save them both plummets them both into the nightmare of a society violently splitting itself into white and black. Spiraling outward from the core image of a cattle killing--the Xhosa people's ritual destruction of their herd in a vain attempt to resist European domination--the novel expands its narrator's search for meaning and love into the America, Europe and South Africa of yesterday and today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 0395877504\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780395877500\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Wideman, John Edgar, N\/A, N\/A\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Mariner Books\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mariner Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (Sep 1997)","offer_id":45658340720837,"sku":"9780395877500","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9780395877500.jpg?v=1768899729","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/the-cattle-killing","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
