{"product_id":"my-kind-of-girl-buddhadeva-bose-9780982624616","title":"My Kind of Girl","description":"A modern-day Bengali Decameron, My Kind of Girl is a sensitive and vibrant novella containing four disarming accounts of unrequited love. In a railway station one bleak December night, four strangers from different walks of life --a contractor, a government bureaucrat, a writer, and a doctor--face an overnight delay. The sight of a young loving couple prompts them to reflect on and share with each other their own experiences of the vagaries of the human heart in a story cycle that is in turn melancholy, playful, wise, and heart-wrenching. The tales reveal each traveler's inner landscape and provide an illuminating glimpse into contemporary life in India. Coming out of a great storytelling tradition, My Kind of Girl is a moving and imaginative look at love from one of India's most celebrated writers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Buddhadeva Bose\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0982624611\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780982624616\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Archipelago Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/05\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 138\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.55h x 5.61w x 0.46d","brand":"Buddhadeva Bose","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44756480524543,"sku":"9780982624616","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c5d30c1a-1c95-4836-8a48-f756f629006a.jpg?v=1706593097","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/my-kind-of-girl-buddhadeva-bose-9780982624616","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
