{"product_id":"a-desert-between-two-seas","title":"A Desert Between Two Seas","description":"Set in the crumbling Spanish missions of nineteenth-century Baja California, this mythic novel in linked stories follows two grief-stricken people as haunted as the desolate chapels around them: a priest who caused the drowning of a native boy by compelling him to fish for pearls, and a deaf woman trying to outrun her murderous reputation as a pistolera. Though the stories span landscapes, villages, characters, and decades, the heart of the novel is Baja California itself--a stark land of cactus and creosote, of russet canyons and splintered wastes of rock--where people living in the shadow of ruined missions seek redemption on an inhospitable peninsula forsaken even by its priests.","brand":"University of Georgia Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45786984677423,"sku":"9780820374383","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/2855\/6847\/files\/imageloader_497f23eb-6837-4543-b5bf-f5feb39be76d.jpg?v=1786145214","url":"https:\/\/tssbooks.com\/products\/a-desert-between-two-seas","provider":"tssbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
