{"product_id":"9780140186864","title":"The Marrow of Tradition","description":"\u003cp\u003eA landmark in the history of African-American fiction, this gripping 1901 novel was among the first literary challenges to racial stereotypes. Its tragic history of two families unfolds against the backdrop of the post-Reconstruction South and climaxes with a race riot based on an actual 1898 incident. The author relied upon eyewitness accounts of the riot to create an authentic setting and mood, and his sensitive artistry transcends a simple re-telling of the facts with a dramatic rendering of the conflict between racism and social justice. Unabridged republication of the classic 1901 edition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47008515424496,"sku":"9780140186864","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780140186864_p0.jpg?v=1763642040","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780140186864","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
