{"product_id":"the-blind-owl","title":"The Blind Owl","description":"Sadegh Hedayat was Iran's most renowned modern fiction writer, and his spine-tingling novel The Blind Owl is considered his seminal work. A classic of modern Iranian literature, this edition is presented to contemporary audiences with a new introduction by Porochista Khakpour, one of the most exciting voices from a new generation of Iranian-American authors.\nA haunting tale of loss and spiritual degradation, The Blind Owl tells the story of a young opium addict's despair after losing a mysterious lover. Through a series of intricately woven events that revolve around the same set of mental images-an old man with a spine-chilling laugh, four cadaverous black horses with rasping coughs, a hidden urn of poisoned wine--the narrator is compelled to record his obsession with a beautiful woman even as it drives him further into frenzy and madness.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0802144284\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.0802144284.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Costello, D.P.|Hedayat, Sadegh|Khakpour, Porochista\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\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 is in very good condition.
