{"product_id":"9780349727813","title":"Night watch","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1874, in the wake of the War, erasure, trauma, and namelessness haunt civilians and veterans, renegades and wanderers, freedmen and runaways. Twelve-year-old ConaLee and her mother, Eliza, who hasn't spoken in more than a year, arrive at the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum in West Virginia, delivered to the hospital's entrance by a war veteran who has forced himself into their lives. There, far from family, a beloved neighbour, and the mountain home they knew, they try to reclaim their lives. The omnipresent vagaries of war and race rise to the surface as we learn their back-story: their flight to the highest mountain ridges of western Virginia; the disappearance of ConaLee's father, who left for the war and never returned. Meanwhile in the asylum, they begin to find a new path. ConaLee pretends to be her mother's maid; Eliza responds slowly to treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fleet","offers":[{"title":"Phillips, Jayne \/ Anne","offer_id":55341085131126,"sku":"9780349727813","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1208\/4146\/files\/9780349727813.jpg?v=1741190085","url":"https:\/\/chepstowbooks.co.uk\/products\/9780349727813","provider":"Chepstow Books \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
