{"product_id":"inventing-god-nicholas-mosley-9781564782915","title":"Inventing God","description":"\u003cp\u003eSet amid the current tension and violence of the Middle East, Whitbread Award-winning Nicholas Mosley's new novel features over a half-dozen characters searching for a way to quell the selfdestructive impulses of society. As the novel develops, the actions and aspirations of these characters--which include a Muslim student working on the most deadly of biological weapons, a young Israeli girl trapped in a temple's ruins, and an eccentric ex-guru who has mysteriously disappeared--create a textual and philosophical pattern illustrating the role chance and coincidence play in our world. In the vein of Hopeful Monsters and The Hesperides Tree, Mosley mixes science, philosophy and contemporary politics around the question of how individual actions can influence the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicholas Mosley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1564782913\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781564782915\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dalkey Archive Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2003 pg. 124\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBookPage\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2003 pg. 15\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/04\/2003 pg. 57\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nicholas Mosley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44634552238335,"sku":"9781564782915","price":14.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2bda0d79-0a28-411e-8e13-92d27a4c786a.jpg?v=1703589858","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/inventing-god-nicholas-mosley-9781564782915","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
