Le Guin's 'Schrodinger's Cat', and Steven Millhauser's 'Cat 'n' Mouse'.","brand":"Bookshop.sg","offers":[{"title":"Thryft - Used (Like New)","offer_id":42546919768142,"sku":"9780307700896","price":12.45,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Thryft - Used (Very Good)","offer_id":42546919800910,"sku":"9780307700896","price":9.96,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Thryft - Used (Good)","offer_id":42546919833678,"sku":"9780307700896","price":8.96,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Thryft - Used (Well Read)","offer_id":42546919866446,"sku":"9780307700896","price":7.97,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/3857\/4926\/files\/11838916_7350ab71-7381-48a1-a0da-fa432c162c39.jpg?v=1747408551","url":"https:\/\/bookshop.sg\/products\/cat-stories-1","provider":"Bookshop.sg","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
