Only Tv=ti, a priest Agnes has mysteriously chosen to be her spiritual guardian, seeks to understand her. But as Agnes's death looms, the farmer's wife and their daughters learn there is another side to the sensational story they've heard.\n\nRiveting and rich with lyricism, Burial Rites evokes a dramatic existence in a distant time and place, and asks the question, how can one woman hope to endure when her life depends upon the stories told by others?\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0316243914\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0316243914.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Kent, Hannah\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43248840769597,"sku":"BVV.0316243914.VG","price":6.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/0316243914-0.jpg?v=1780521681","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/burial-rites-a-novel","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
