{"product_id":"9780140256338","title":"Child of All Nations","description":"In \u003cb\u003eChild of All Nations\u003c\/b\u003e, the reader is immediately swept up by a story that is profoundly feminist, devastatingly anticolonialist—and full of heartbreak, suspense, love, and fury. Pramoedya immerses the reader in a world that is astonishing in its vividness: the cultural whirlpool that was the Dutch East Indies of the 1890s. A story of awakening, it follows Minke, the main character of \u003cb\u003eThis Earth of Mankind\u003c\/b\u003e, as he struggles to overcome the injustice all around him. Pramoedya's full literary genius is evident in the brilliant characters that populate this world: Minke's fragile Mixed-Race wife; a young Chinese revolutionary; an embattled Javanese peasant and his impoverished family; the French painter Jean Marais, to name just a few.","brand":"Pramoedya Ananta Toer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback Trade paperback (US)","offer_id":47794205982932,"sku":"9780140256338","price":17.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/penguinshop.ca\/products\/9780140256338","provider":"Penguin Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
