{"product_id":"the-deserters","title":"The Deserters","description":"A filthy and exhausted soldier emerges from the Mediterranean wilderness--he is escaping from an unspecified war, trying to flee incessant violence and find refuge in solitude. Meanwhile, on September 11, 2001, aboard a small cruise ship, a scientific conference takes place to pay tribute to renowned East German mathematician Paul Heudeber, a committed communist and anti-fascist, and a survivor of the camps at Buchenwald.The tension grows between these two narrative threads, and--pulled together in Mathias Énard's enchanting, brilliant, erudite prose--time itself seems to become tightly interwoven, drawn together by the immense stakes of love and politics, loyalty and belief, hope and survival.\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 0811239012\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780811239011\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Enard, Mathias, Mandell, Charlotte\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: New Directions Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"New Directions Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (May 2025)","offer_id":46080545980613,"sku":"9780811239011","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9780811239011.jpg?v=1776038217","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/the-deserters","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
