{"product_id":"property-vintage-contemporaries-1","title":"Property (Vintage Contemporaries)","description":"WINNER OF THE ORANGE PRIZE • Set in 1828 on a Louisiana sugar plantation, this novel from the bestselling author of Mary Reilly presents a “fresh, unsentimental look at what slave-owning does to (and for) one's interior life.... The writing—so prised and clean limbed—is a marvel\" (Toni Morrison, Nobel Prize-winning author of Beloved).\n\nManon Gaudet, pretty, bitterly intelligent, and monstrously self-absorbed, seethes under the dominion of her boorish husband. In particular his relationship with her slave Sarah, who is both his victim and his mistress.\n\nExploring the permutations of Manon’s own obsession with Sarah against the backdrop of an impending slave rebellion, Property unfolds with the speed and menace of heat lightning, casting a startling light from the past upon the assumptions we still make about the powerful and powerful.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0375713301\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0375713301.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Martin, Valerie\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Pages are clean with no markings.
