{"product_id":"the-potato-eaters-richard-newman-9781847533234","title":"The Potato Eaters","description":"Amsterdam in 1950 was a country moving out of the German occupation - a City bent on rooting out the collaborators of the war to mitigate some of the guilt of the past in the treatment of their Jews. Ruth is a refugee from Auschwitz having lost her family, her home and, almost, her reason. But, she is intelligent, and when she befriends a youth from a tugboat who also suffers from mental illness there is a remarkable meeting of minds, as both suffer from fear: one of the past and one of the future. The story tells of their road to rebuilding their lives, finding happiness again among the bustling harbour but, a place also where, through her loyalty to her new friends Ruth becomes entangled with the traffic in Dutch collaborators fleeing the country.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Newman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 184753323X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781847533234\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/14\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 364\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.94d","brand":"Richard Newman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43938964242687,"sku":"9781847533234","price":37.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_7f60f1e1-ec4b-446e-af51-b4fe05c0b60f.jpg?v=1681438706","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-potato-eaters-richard-newman-9781847533234","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
