{"product_id":"dragonfly-eyes","title":"Dragonfly Eyes","description":"\u003cp\u003eA family saga spanning fifty years and three generations, which takes the reader from the France of the Golden Age to poverty-stricken post-war Shanghai via the re-imagined rural China of the Cultural Revolution. Ah-Mei and her French grandmother, Nainai, share a rare bond. Maybe because Ah-Mei is the only girl grandchild, or maybe because the pair look so alike - and because neither look much like the rest of their Chinese family.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Politics and war make 1960s Shanghai a hard place to grow up, especially when racism and bigotry are rife, and everyone is suspicious of Nainai's European heritage. Ah-Mei and her family suffer much in this time of political upheaval, and when the family silk business falters, they are left with almost nothing. But Ah-Mei and her grandmother are resourceful, and they have one another - and the tenderness they share brings them great strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\nFormat: Paperback\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePublished: UK, 2021\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePublisher: Walker Books Ltd \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePages: 384\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLanguage: English\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\nISBN 13: 9781406378252\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e ISBN 10: 1406378259","brand":"Cao Wenxuan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44351795167498,"sku":"","price":11.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0282\/6066\/3399\/products\/9781398706064_1bfe066d-4a43-467c-878d-5424be1c44ea.jpg?v=1677240531","url":"https:\/\/www.shakespeareandsons.com\/products\/dragonfly-eyes","provider":"Shakespeare \u0026 Sons Buchhandel GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
