{"product_id":"9781590173718","title":"A High Wind in Jamaica","description":"Richard Hughes's celebrated short novel is a masterpiece of concentrated narrative. Its dreamlike action begins among the decayed plantation houses and overwhelming natural abundance of late nineteenth-century Jamaica, before moving out onto the high seas, as Hughes tells the story of a group of children thrown upon the mercy of a crew of down-at-the-heel pirates. A tale of seduction and betrayal, of accommodation and manipulation, of weird humor and unforeseen violence, this classic of twentieth-century literature is above all an extraordinary reckoning with the secret reasons and otherworldly realities of childhood.","brand":"New York Review Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47134196367600,"sku":"9781590173718","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781590173718_p0.jpg?v=1763805794","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781590173718","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
