Is this tradeswoman in control of her \"destiny\"\/business or is she a commodity of impenetrable global forces? Her investigative, digressive travel seems a way to interrogate history and money and her own entanglement in such irresistible threads.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Aditi Machado\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1643620290\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781643620299\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nightboat Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/27\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.90w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/19\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2020 pg. 71","brand":"Aditi Machado","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44046171373823,"sku":"9781643620299","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f8075bd2-204a-4e76-be52-dcb48c366d62.jpg?v=1684983048","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/emporium-aditi-machado-9781643620299","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
