It follows an unnamed Uyghur man who comes to the impenetrable Chinese capital of Xinjiang after finding a temporary job in a government office. Seeking to escape the pain and poverty of the countryside, he finds only cold stares and rejection. He wanders the streets, accompanied by the bitter fog of winter pollution, reciting a monologue of numbers and odors, lust and loathing, memories and madness.Perhat Tursun\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692092916000,"sku":"NEW0231202911","price":23.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81ttzhpb82L.jpg?v=1779376913","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-backstreets-a-novel-from-xinjiang-0231202911","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
