Then, there's \"Destiny,\" with a female entrepreneur about to sell her successful business and move on to what's next (which comes as a devastating disclosure to her family), \"The Hunt,\" about whether the deer belong on Deer Island or not (and who gets to decide), and \"The Dowry,\" when young love in another culture can be fatally misunderstood. Through these varied and wonderful tales we get a vision of the wonderful world of Judith Ets-Hokin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 162\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.37 x 8 x 5.25 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 01, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42710744137791,"sku":"9781646693368","price":23.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/ac3f75bc93f0785b39a50831b4a312ba.webp?v=1765056032","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/plastic-jesus-and-other-stories-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
