{"product_id":"dhanapatir-char-amar-mitra-9780670095223","title":"Dhanapatir Char: Whatever Happened to Pedru's Island?","description":"The island came out of the golden pot of Ma Kamala, which she gave to the pirate Pedru to rule. However, there are mythical and mystical elements to the story about how Dhanapati is not only the village headman but also the giant tortoise of lore that swam in from depths of the oceans and fell asleep here to be seen when the waters recede in the winter months. Dhanapati was the last Pedru, but he was now old and blind, unable to rule his island for long. He then gifted it to his seventeen-year-old wife, Kunti. Will Dhaneshwari, the new ruler, be able to save the island and its women from the lustful eyes of the administration? Or will the government acquire the island? Or will Kunti be able to cast her spell and get the old tortoise to float away with the island on his back? The Island of Dhanapatir combines the elements of myth, allegory and magic realism with a folklore of rare beauty.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jhimli Mukherjee Pandey, Amar Mitra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0670095222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780670095223\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/02\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 520\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.50w x 2.10d","brand":"Jhimli Mukherjee Pandey","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44075384832255,"sku":"9780670095223","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c22f250e-9787-42dc-858a-49e7afe4e66f.jpg?v=1685459103","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dhanapatir-char-amar-mitra-9780670095223","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
