{"product_id":"9781529019582","title":"The Most Precious of Cargoes","description":"\u003cp\u003eOnce upon a time in an enormous forest there lived a poor woodcutter and his wife. Around them a war wages, and hunger is a constant companion. Yet every night, the woodcutter's wife prays for a child.\n\nOn a train crossing the forest, a Jewish father holds his twin children. His wife no longer has enough milk to feed them. In hopes of saving both their lives, he wraps his daughter in a shawl and gently throws her from the train.\n\nWhile foraging for food, the woodcutter's wife finds a bundle, a baby girl wrapped in a shawl. She knows that this little girl will be pursued, but she cannot ignore this gift: she will accept the precious cargo, and raise her as her own. . .\n\nSet against the horrors of the Holocaust and told with a fairytale-like lyricism, The Most Precious of Cargoes, translated from French by Frank Wynne, is a deeply moving fable about family and redemption, a story that reminds us that humanity can be found in the most inhumane of places.\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+Jean-Claude+Grumberg\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eJean-Claude Grumberg\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jean-Claude Grumberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47380321796259,"sku":"9781529019582","price":250.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781529019582_5788ccd4-9d2c-46cc-9240-e8f47210d012.jpg?v=1776560414","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781529019582","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
