{"product_id":"9781845232993","title":"Tracing Ja Ja","description":"\u003cp\u003eBased on the life of accomplished merchant prince King Ja Ja of Opobo, Anthony Kellman has created a richly imaginative and warmly human work of historical fiction. Weaving between the official records and the satirical and cynical traditions of the “tuk” song, \u003ci\u003eTracing Ja Ja \u003c\/i\u003etraces the emerging love between an ailing African king in exile and his Barbadian servant Becka. When Jubo Jubogba began life as a trader’s slave, paddling the great house’s canoes, no one could’ve predicted his meteoric ascent to become Ja Ja of Opobo, a sage merchant king of the Niger’s rich river delta. Kellman’s psychological insight crosses ages and cultures, with a poet’s perception of the beauties of his island’s flora and fauna.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peepal Tree Press Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47059269320944,"sku":"9781845232993","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781845232993_p0.jpg?v=1763743627","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781845232993","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
