The Cradle on the Scales, without justifying crime, takes a compassionate, empathetic look at Unimke, a product of rape and domestic abuse in a society where humanity has been debased by ungodly materialism and domestic slavery; but who becomes a Frankenstein with near-tragic dimensions in the very home and society that fashioned him.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe novel as it were seems to stress the primacy of a warm home, above every structure erected by society, as the first and most important crucible of responsible citizenship. Otherwise, all marble brick and mortar mansions, religion, law or any other structure of coercion or persuasion become mere sterile agents of socialization that only breed repressed bigoted men and women whose actions ultimately find condemnation within the very human structures that produced them. The Cradle on the Scales is as it were, a swan song for the restoration of the humaneness, love and true spirituality in humanity beyond the commodification of life and religion in a world set adrift by Mammon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Liwhu Betiang\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1456770195\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781456770198\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Authorhouse UK\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.48d","brand":"Liwhu Betiang","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48439234167039,"sku":"9781456770198","price":17.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_312ee06c-599c-4b89-8a3d-255936fbe03c.jpg?v=1777176314","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-cradle-on-the-scales-liwhu-betiang-9781456770198","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
