{"product_id":"the-jam-fruit-tree","title":"Jam Fruit Tree","description":"Winner   of the Gratiean Memorial Prize for the best work in English Literature by a   Sri Lankan for 1993 Hilarious, affectionate, candid and moving, this is the   story of the Burghers of Sri Lanka... Who are the Burghers? Descended from   the Dutch, the Portuguese, the British and other foreigners who arrived in   the island-nation of Sri Lanka (and 'mingled' with the local inhabitants),   the Burghers often stand out because of their curiously mixed features-grey   eyes in an otherwise Dravid face, for instance.... A handsome and guileless   people, the Burghers have always lived it up, forever willing to 'put a   party'. Carl Muller, a Burgher himself, writes in this quasi-fictional,   engaging biography of the lives of his people; they emerge, at the end of his   story, as a race of fun-loving, hardy people, much like the jam fruit tree   which simply refuses to be contained or destroyed.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57466771210613,"sku":"9780140230314","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780140230314.jpg?v=1785654832","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/the-jam-fruit-tree","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
