{"product_id":"9789383145461","title":"Brer Rabbit Retold","description":"The Brer Rabbit stories were originally oral tales told by slaves from the American South. In this powerful rendering for children and adults, writer and griot Arthur Flowers re-tells them as wisdom tales for a contemporary audience, bringing them back to us as one of the sturdy roots of African-American literature. \u003cbr\u003eThis version also straddles storytelling forms–connecting the spoken and written word in surprising ways. The text is heir to the original oral stories, exquisitely illustrated by Jagdish Chitara, a ritual textile painter from Gujarat. Arthur Flowers then takes his stories back into the realm of the oral, with a musical spoken word performance in collaboration with a group of young Indian musicians. \u003cbr\u003ePrinted and bound by hand, this limited edition artists’ book includes a music album and short film. This genre defying cross-media project pushes the boundaries of narrative art to a new level of accomplishment. \u003cp\u003eWith music cd and download code.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tara Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47064063049968,"sku":"9789383145461","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789383145461_p0.jpg?v=1763675075","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789383145461","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
