{"product_id":"to-compare-9781964499581","title":"To Compare","description":"A bracing and variegated debut, Xuela Zhang’s To Compare inhabits the fraught condition of living in and through translation in the age of globalization, social media, and the Chinese-American neo-Cold War. In To Compare, Zhang navigates the quagmire of transnational life, where one is always both here and away. “Has language\/passed you by\/like a curvy city\/or shielded\/and isolated you,\/an illuminated vehicle\/against the flooding\/tenors of light?” Zhang writes in To Compare, reflecting on the nature of translation—both linguistic and otherwise— as a way of life. Disjunctive, alluring, To Compare poetically represents our contemporary age.","brand":"Xuela Zhang","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48093734600955,"sku":"9781964499581","price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_960c5604-8d23-4a53-b877-6b215387384d.jpg?v=1773727822","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/to-compare-9781964499581","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
