{"product_id":"the-flood-9781770919372","title":"The Flood","description":"In 1887, women were property and could be imprisoned for any reason. Jail was considered a place for the criminal, the disabled, the mentally ill, and the marginalized. \u003cp\u003eIn the basement prison below Toronto's largest market, two women named Mary--one a shunned, pregnant Irish immigrant, the other a vilified Mississauga woman--become an unlikely pair as they form a friendship within their cold, shared cell. Their bond threatens fellow inmate Sophia--who calls herself the first Black woman in Canada and the leader of the prisoners--and she plots to use the women to gain better treatment for herself. But as melting ice water pours into the prison from Lake Ontario, the forgotten women of Toronto must come together to survive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Leah Simone Bowen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Playwrights Canada Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/16\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.50h x 5.00w x 0.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781770919372\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Playwrights Canada Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42706492981385,"sku":"9781770919372","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_d8e0fabb-ee2f-4583-a972-192ae3d64446.jpg?v=1719458480","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/the-flood-9781770919372","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
