Ultimately, \u003cem\u003elion\u003c\/em\u003e is about the impact of the loss of identity amongst the Iranian diaspora, and the creation of myths of origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Zand\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848611153\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848611153\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shearsman Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 98\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.23d","brand":"Michael Zand","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48437111849215,"sku":"9781848611153","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cd5da55c-1c5f-4f79-86c9-80db98a1a56f.jpg?v=1777159941","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lion-michael-zand-9781848611153","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
