As these three lives intertwine, each woman manages an astonishing feat of self-preservation against those who have made themselves the fastest-growing and most-reviled people in Europe. In Marie NDiaye's stunning narration we see the progress by which ordinary women discover unimagined reserves of strength.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53480702705937,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780307594693.jpg?v=1777551205","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-three-strong-women-by-marie-ndiaye","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
