Yonas kneels in his mother's prayer room, pleading to his god for an end to the violence that has wracked his family and country. His father, Hailu, a prominent doctor, has been ordered to report to jail after helping a victim of state-sanctioned torture to die. And Dawit, Hailu's youngest son, has joined an underground resistance movement-a choice that will lead to more upheaval and bloodshed across a ravaged Ethiopia.Emotionally gripping, poetic and indelibly tragic, Beneath the Lion's Gaze is a transcendent story that tells a gripping story of family and of the bonds of love and friendship. It is a story about the lengths to which human beings will go in pursuit of freedom and the human price of a national revolution.","brand":"Maaza Mengiste","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45719727341886,"sku":"9780099539926","price":275.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9780099539926_1e1d1c40-0c44-4690-b4e3-14d340c3cf5e.jpg?v=1707213517","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9780099539926","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
