It is an epic narrative that moves from California to Kashmir, France, and England, and back to California again. Along the way there are tales of princesses lured from their homes by demons, legends of kings forced to defend their kingdoms against evil. And there is always love, gained and lost, uncommonly beautiful and mortally dangerous.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHardcover:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 416 \u003c\/span\u003epages\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Random House September 6, 2005\u003c\/span\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 978-0679463351\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Rushdie, Salman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49294251327739,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0078\/1906\/7459\/files\/s-l640_17e3ef11-7c2f-4de8-9ba3-0c90eca08647.jpg?v=1789073639","url":"https:\/\/aesopsfable.com\/products\/shalimar-the-clown-signed-first-edition","provider":"AESOP'S FABLE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
