{"product_id":"cao-wenxuan-dragonfly-eyes-9781406378252","title":"Dragonfly Eyes","description":"A family saga spanning fifty years and three generations, which takes the reader from the France of the Golden Age to poverty-stricken post-war Shanghai via the re-imagined rural China of the Cultural Revolution. Ah-Mei and her French grandmother, Nainai, share a rare bond. Maybe because Ah-Mei is the only girl grandchild, or maybe because the pair look so alike - and because neither look much like the rest of their Chinese family. Politics and war make 1960s Shanghai a hard place to grow up, especially when racism and bigotry are rife, and everyone is suspicious of Nainai's European heritage. Ah-Mei and her family suffer much in this time of political upheaval, and when the family silk business falters, they are left with almost nothing. But Ah-Mei and her grandmother are resourceful, and they have one another - and the tenderness they share brings them great strength.","brand":"Walker Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Used - good","offer_id":53376348717398,"sku":"9781406378252-G","price":6.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9781406378252_1_19f90dca-b09a-41fa-961a-a304a477cd1a.jpg?v=1778154792","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/cao-wenxuan-dragonfly-eyes-9781406378252","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
