{"product_id":"freedom-and-death","title":"Freedom and Death","description":"\u003cb\u003eFreedom and Death\u003c\/b\u003e is Kazantzakis's modern \u003cb\u003eIliad\u003c\/b\u003e. The context is Crete in the late nineteenth century, the epic struggle between Greeks and Turks, between Christianity and Islam. A new uprising takes place to rival those of 1854, 1866 and 1878, and the island is thrown into confusion yet again. In the village of Megalokastro a Cretan resistance fighter, Captain Michales, is matched by the Turkish bey, his blood-brother. The life of the local community continues shakily, but is disrupted by explosions of violence.","brand":"Faber \u0026 Faber","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54261527314776,"sku":"9780571178575","price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780571178575_0d71731d-81e9-43e3-b1b2-5910d3d09232.jpg?v=1777271444","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/freedom-and-death","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
