{"product_id":"desirees-baby-kate-chopin-9781545033326","title":"Desiree's Baby","description":"Desiree's Baby BY Kate Chopin is about the daughter of Monsieur and Madame Valmond , who are wealthy French Creoles in antebellum Louisiana. Abandoned as a baby, Desiree was found by Monsieur Valmond  lying in the shadow of a stone pillar near the Valmond  gateway. She is courted by the son of another wealthy, well-known and respected French Creole family, Armand. They marry and have a child. People who see the baby have the sense it is different. Eventually they realize that the baby's skin is the same color as a quadroon (one-quarter African)-the baby has African ancestry. At the time of the story, this would have been considered a problem for a person believed to be white.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kate Chopin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1545033323\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781545033326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.00w x 0.05d","brand":"Kate Chopin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44047328477439,"sku":"9781545033326","price":6.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9d8087ff-8510-4165-aed6-30dc2519d02e.jpg?v=1684989577","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/desirees-baby-kate-chopin-9781545033326","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
