{"product_id":"maharani-ruskin-bond-9780143420668","title":"Maharani","description":"H.H. is the spoilt, selfish, beautiful widow of the Maharaja of Mastipur. She lives with her dogs and her caretaker, Hans, in an enormous old house in Mussoorie, taking lovers and discarding them, drinking too much and fending off her reckless sons who are waiting hungrily for their inheritance. The seasons come and go, hotels burn down, cinemas shut shop and people leave the hill station never to return, but H.H. remains constant and indomitable. Observing her antics, often with disapproval, is her old friend Ruskin, who can never quite cut himself off from her. Melancholic, wry and full of charm, \u003ci\u003eMaharani\u003c\/i\u003e is a delightful novella about love, death and friendship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ruskin Bond\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0143420666\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143420668\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e India Penguin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.35h x 5.20w x 0.55d","brand":"Ruskin Bond","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44410843693311,"sku":"9780143420668","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fedfa051-b8ea-4d7b-82f5-b60abe9e7e52.jpg?v=1697537958","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/maharani-ruskin-bond-9780143420668","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
