I could feel every word' ANGELA HUI'Thoughtful, poetic and clear-sighted' CECILE PINThe orange is a souvenir of history. Across time, it has been a harbinger of God and doom, fortune and failure, pleasure and suffering. It is a fruit containing metaphors, dreams, mythologies, superstitions, parables and histories within its tough rind. So, what happens when the fruit is peeled and each segment - each moment of history, each meaning in time - is pulled apart?In this distinct, subversive and intimate hybrid memoir, Katie Goh explores the orange as a means of understanding the world, and herself within it. What she reveals is violence, colonialism, resilience, survival, adaptation - and unexpected beauty and sweetness against all odds.","brand":"Canongate Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51460137550112,"sku":"9781837261178","price":9.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781837261178_2454142.jpg?v=1775718225","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/foreign-fruit-katie-goh-9781837261178","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
