{"product_id":"the-hostage-zayd-mutee-dammaj-9781566561464","title":"The Hostage","description":"Set in the pre-revolution Yemen of the Imams, this novel depicts the experiences of a young boy who, having been taken hostage, in line with the Imam's general practice, as a pledge for his father's political obedience, is sent to serve as a young male attendant in the palace of the city governor. The growth of the boy's awareness, political, social and personal, is movingly portrayed against a background of bygone times whose decadence and injustice are presented with vivid satiric force.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Zayd Mutee' Dammaj\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1566561469\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781566561464\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Interlink Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/13\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.46w x 0.74d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/1994 pg. 126","brand":"Zayd Mutee' Dammaj","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48459540234495,"sku":"9781566561464","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_aab922c9-4af3-404b-addf-9a16e8014915.jpg?v=1777410325","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-hostage-zayd-mutee-dammaj-9781566561464","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
