{"product_id":"this-other-salt-aamer-hussein-9780863565328","title":"This Other Salt","description":"Betrayal, bereavement, exile, belonging - these are the themes that resonate throughout This Other Salt. A writer, torn between two loves, looks for his lost words in the gaps between memory, mourning and desire in the title story; in 'The Lost Cantos of the Silken Tiger' a poet revenges herself on her faithless lover by turning their romance into a legend of biblical proportions; and a teenage boy's life uncannily begins to resemble the role he plays in a school operetta in 'The Blue Direction'. Combining satire, legend, poetry, history and memoir, the linked stories of \u003ci\u003eThis Other Salt\u003c\/i\u003e reveal an author of uncommon talent at the height of his craft.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Aamer Hussein\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0863565328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780863565328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Saqi Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.60d","brand":"Aamer Hussein","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46372326080767,"sku":"9780863565328","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_597b8dc6-5716-494e-8c33-70ad7c12e099.jpg?v=1732725635","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/this-other-salt-aamer-hussein-9780863565328","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
