{"product_id":"baltasar-and-blimunda-1","title":"Baltasar and Blimunda","description":"From José Saramago, Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, Baltasar and Blimunda is a \"brilliant...enchanting novel\" (The New York Times Book Review) of romance, deceit, religion, and magic set in eighteenth-century Portugal at the height of the Inquisition. Portugal, 1711: an amorous friar is pursued naked through the rubble-strewn streets of Lisbon; an enthusiastic procession of flagellants roars with pleasure over the damnation of adultery; a royal prince uses hapless sailors for target practice; and women dressed in colorful finery watch as lapsed converts and sorcerers are put to death by flames. In the midst of the terrors of the Inquisition and the plague, a seemingly mismatched couple discover the wonders of love. This poetic tale, graced with exquisite historical details and full of magic and adventure, is a tapestry of human folly and human will.","brand":"Blue Vase Bulk","offers":[{"title":"Used \/ 9780156005203-001","offer_id":43810856960061,"sku":"9780156005203-001","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Used \/ 9780156005203-002","offer_id":43810856992829,"sku":"9780156005203-002","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Used \/ 9780156005203-003","offer_id":43811437019197,"sku":"9780156005203-003","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/14425063482243.jpg?v=1791907737","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/baltasar-and-blimunda-1","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
