After witnessing the aftermath of a brutal murder ignited by the codex, the protagonist must face a cult of arson-loving linguists, a luthier-psychopomp, an Egyptian alchemist and a Dionysian ghost. Religious, mystical and philosophical elements burn in dreams, conversations and events while the narrator seems to be withholding a ghastly truth. Sacrilegious and controversial, \"The Song Itself\" is a caffeine ingesting, chain smoking tour through an absurd world that is about to explode into flames.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thesongitself","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47611962818711,"sku":"9780615169200","price":1560.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780615169200.webp?v=1775074026","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-song-itself-a-gnostic-remembrance-9780615169200","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
