{"product_id":"the-song-itself-yzoq-cuartz-9780615173122","title":"The Song Itself: A Gnostic Remembrance","description":"Translated from the Coptic, Pig Latin, Aramaic and Greek by Yäq Cuartz, \"The Song Itself\" is the memoir of a nameless and sexless messenger whose memory and world are set ablaze by contact with an ancient Gnostic codex. After witnessing the aftermath of a brutal murder ignited by the codex, the protagonist must face a cult of arson-loving linguists, a luthier-psychopomp, an Egyptian alchemist and a Dionysian ghost. Religious, mystical and philosophical elements burn in dreams, conversations and events while the narrator seems to be withholding a ghastly truth. Sacrilegious and controversial, \"The Song Itself\" is a caffeine ingesting, chain smoking tour through an absurd world that is about to explode into flames.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yäq Cuartz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0615173128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780615173122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thesongitself\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/22\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.81d","brand":"Yäq Cuartz","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47473812635903,"sku":"9780615173122","price":34.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2e135819-2656-4a4b-a416-ae84fb6761a1.jpg?v=1762313101","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-song-itself-yzoq-cuartz-9780615173122","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
