{"product_id":"9781400079322-secondhand-birds-without-wings","title":"Birds Without Wings","description":"In his first novel since  Corelli's Mandolin ,  Louis de Bernieres creates a world, populates it with characters as real as our best friends, and launches it into the maelstrom of twentieth-century history. The setting is a small village in southwestern Anatolia in the waning years of the Ottoman Empire. Everyone there speaks Turkish, though they write it in Greek letters. It's a place that has room for a professional blasphemer; where a brokenhearted aga finds solace in the arms of a Circassian courtesan who isn't Circassian at all; where a beautiful Christian girl named Philothei is engaged to a Muslim boy named Ibrahim. But all of this will change when Turkey enters the modern world. Epic in sweep, intoxicating in its sensual detail,  Birds Without Wings  is an enchantment.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50758306234587,"sku":"9781400079322-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/595a981f-ff73-4d96-b076-1ac82b632e28.jpg?v=1792158304","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9781400079322-secondhand-birds-without-wings","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
