{"product_id":"9781897009819","title":"A Forest for Calum: A Novel","description":"A coming of age story about Roddie Gillies and his guardian and grandfather Calum, who is one of the last remaining Gaelic speakers in the once-proud mining town of Shean. A quiet and stoic man, Calum Gillies and his aging friends illuminate for us the changing world around them: the loss of the coal mines, the labour strife and lean years endured, the religious parochialism that divides families and communities and, most important, a disappearing language. The setting is Cape Breton; the themes of cultural and rural change and decline are universal.","brand":"Cape Breton University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47163425554672,"sku":"9781897009819","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781897009819_p0.jpg?v=1763610903","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781897009819","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
