Pampa Kampana becomes a vessel for a goddess, who tells her that she will be instrumental in the rise of a great city called Bisnaga, ‘victory city’. Over the next two hundred and fifty years, Pampa Kampana’s life becomes deeply interwoven with Bisnaga’s as she attempts to make good on the task that the goddess set for her: to give women equal agency in a patriarchal world. But all stories have a way of getting away from their creator, and Bisnaga is no exception. ‘Mesmerising’ ELIF SHAFAK, author of The Island of Missing Trees ‘A total pleasure to read’ SUNDAY TIMES ‘One of the planet’s greatest writers’ EVENING STANDARD ‘A triumph… Enthralling’ I ***A FINANCIAL TIMES AND THE TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR*** ***A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK*** ------------------------------ Why buy from BookCurl? ------------------------------ • 99.9% positive eBay feedback • All items brand new • Free tracked UK delivery • Independent UK bookseller with millions of titles • Secure packaging for safe delivery • Friendly support and recommendations BookCurl – Curl up with a good book.

This book arrived today, exactly when the seller said it would, and was very well packaged for its journey. It is in absolutely perfect condition and it exactly as it is described on Ebay. For a book that is something of a rarity in Britain, the price was very low and having free postage made the value even greater. It is a small Christmas present for someone with the family name of 'Lucero', so this makes the exceptional way in which this seller works all the more special. Thank you greatly
Sadly the book went missing in the post and was not delivered. I contacted the seller who immediately replied, apologising for the lack of delivery and explaining that there were no further paperback copies available. Instead, the seller offered a hardback copy or a refund. As I wanted the 2012 (paperback) edition, with the updated introduction, I chose the refund. This was provided immediately with a covering message. A first class eBay seller, who I have no hesitation in recommending.
Excellent Service , Packaging & Communication. The seller responds to messages very quickly. In Fact, I paniced & contacted the seller just early today asking why the book is taking too long & teh seller reassured me that it was on it was & two hours later , the book arrived! I felt a bit silly jumping th egun as the book actially arrived within the specifed time ( earlier in fact ) SO, ALL very good & I now look forward to my Christmas reading. Saved Seller. Thank you
