{"product_id":"9781836742852","title":"The Women","description":"Part memoir and part literary nonfiction, The Women captures the harsh and unequal experience of being a woman in 1970s and 80s rural China. Written by the award winning author Yan Lianke, the book is both a tribute to the women who shaped his life and a sociological critique of China's treatment of women. 'In the countryside, the human being is a worker,' but rural women's work is diminished, their hardship ignored. Through humor and tragedy, Lianke shares their story and reveals a side of Chinese life rarely accessed by the West.","brand":"Verso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57657979142517,"sku":"9781836742852","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/files\/9781836742852.jpg?v=1792156191","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.com\/products\/9781836742852","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
