{"product_id":"living-mountain","title":"Living Mountain","description":"\u003cp\u003eA new story from internationally renowned author Amitav Ghosh, The Living Mountain is a cautionary tale of how we have systematically exploited nature, leading to an environmental collapse. Recounted as a dream, this is a fable about Mahaparbat, the Living Mountain; the indigenous valley dwellers who live and prosper in its shelter; the assault on the mountain for commercial benefit by the Anthropoi, humans whose sole aim is to reap the bounty of nature; and the disaster that unfolds as a result. The Living Mountain is especially relevant today when we have been battling a pandemic and are facing a climate catastrophe: both of which are products of our insufficient understanding of mankind's relationship with nature, and our sustained appropriation and abuse of natural resources. This is a book of our times, for our times, and it will resonate strongly with readers of all ages.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GENRES BSTIN Science Fiction \u0026 Fantasy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":62415832973682,"sku":"9354898874 - PB","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":62415833006450,"sku":"9354898874 - HB","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/6889\/0482\/files\/71J7XjS8TrL.jpg?v=1790609903","url":"https:\/\/universalreads.com\/products\/living-mountain","provider":"Universal reads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
