The novel follows Harriet and Guy Pringle as they navigate the turbulent landscapes of the Middle East during World War II, chronicling lives caught between love, loss, and the relentless upheaval of global conflict. Manning writes with an unsentimental precision and an intimate psychological depth that transforms the grand theatre of war into a profoundly human story. Widely regarded as one of the finest British war novels of the twentieth century, the sequence culminates here in a moving and masterful meditation on survival, identity, and the bonds that endure against all odds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956373008603,"sku":"2026200008604-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/5b2ac53c-b60b-485b-a436-47f7bd380479.png?v=1783500453","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008604-secondhand-the-sum-of-things","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
