{"product_id":"doris-lessing-mara-and-dann-9780006550839","title":"Mara and Dann","description":"A visionary novel from Doris Lessing, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature. It is sooner than you might think. And the Earth's climate is much changed - it's colder than ever before in the north, and unbearably dry and hot in the south. Mara, who is seven, and her four-year-old brother Dann find themselves somewhere very strange, not home ... They are taken in by a kindly, grandmotherly woman, but this new life is hard: hunger, dirt, thirst and danger are the children's constant companions. Drought and fire carry off their adoptive home and force them to set off northward into the unknown, to experience a series of adventures that bring them to an altogether altered world, where they can start to learn and build anew. Doris Lessing has written a compelling, troubling and entertaining novel that, through the remarkable odyssey of a brother and sister living in the imagined future, manages to tell us a great deal about the present we perceive only dimly and scarcely know how to value.","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Used - good","offer_id":53229955809622,"sku":"9780006550839-G","price":5.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9780006550839_1.jpg?v=1781211866","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/doris-lessing-mara-and-dann-9780006550839","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
