{"product_id":"9781415206881","title":"Mongrel: Essays","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom a carcass competition in the Karoo to a shambolic murder trial in Cape Town, William Dicey's essays freewheel across an open terrain of interests. Dicey is curious and inventive, weaving strands of essay, journalism, fiction and self-reportage into something uniquely his own. Mongrel investigates a range of topics - radical environmentalism, the fault lines between farmer and farm worker, the joys and sorrows of reading - yet drifts of concern and sensibility draw the collection together. Several essays touch on how books can move, and sometimes maul, their readers. Mongrel is idiosyncratic, witty, potent.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+William+Dicey\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eWilliam Dicey\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"William Dicey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47375697805475,"sku":"9781415206881","price":300.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781415206881_399a96cc-dc26-44a9-bcec-ef87eb6c045f.jpg?v=1776531244","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781415206881","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
