{"product_id":"9781588140685","title":"Cannon","description":"\"The Cannon\" is the first and best of Gholam-Hossein Sa'edi's novels. It has an unwavering focus on a single character, the independent itinerant Mullah Mir Hashem who is clever and manipulative. Based on historical events, the novel is set in north-western Iran in the early twentieth century. It features tribal supporters of the Constitutional Revolution; Russian Cossacks who are backing the status quo; and Mullah Mir Hashem. The novel offers a glimpse into the tensions and machinations of the revo-lution, where each party is attempting to outwit, out-manoeuvre and otherwise deceive the other. For most of the narrative Mir Hashem seems to have outsmarted the others. The story comes to an intriguing and unpredictable end.","brand":"Ibex Publishers (US)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65425593106781,"sku":null,"price":18.74,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/3893\/2573\/files\/9781588140685.jpg?v=1789349655","url":"https:\/\/shop.gazellebookservices.co.uk\/products\/9781588140685","provider":"Gazelle Book Services","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
