{"product_id":"being-eaten-alive-on-a-cool-pleasant-winters-morning-9780987925312","title":"Being Eaten Alive on a Cool, Pleasant Winter's Morning","description":"Maung Swe Tint's short story 'Being Eaten Alive on a Cool, Pleasant Winter's Morning' was first published in Shumawa magazine 1981. In clear, well-written Burmese prose, Maung Swe Tint meditatively details the daily life and concerns of an intellectual of the Burma Socialist Programme Party period. Implicit in the story are concerns for survival in that period of oppression, and the fragility of life. The story has been adapted for learners by Nance Cunningham. The book starts with a simplified version, and includes the original version with a translation on facing pages. Explanatory material and exercises help the learner appreciate and consolidate the material. This book is the first in the Readings from Pansodan series, which makes stories, essays, and other short pieces of literature accessible to intermediate Burmese language learners. As all Readings are based on Burmese-language originals, the learner absorbs the natural discourse of educated usage. Readings are reproduced with the spelling and typesetting conventions as they were originally published, to assist learners in their further reading of pre-spelling-reform literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nance Cunningham, Maung Swe Tint\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pansodan Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/17\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.31d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780987925312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaung Swe Tint is the former editor of Shumawa Magazine, a major literary magazine on the Burmese scene for decades.
