Everyone in the city recognizes the footwear and knows their owner. Men raise their eyebrows when he passes, women gossip, and laughing children chase after him. When Abu Kassim decides to dispose of the shoes, he finds it an impossible task. To his dismay, each attempt to rid himself of the infamous footwear: flinging them into the river, burying them, or tossing them into the public toilet, all backfire. The shoes repeatedly reappear in surprising and comical episodes, heaping trouble, losses and fines on their owner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.12 x 8.5 x 8.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 06, 2000\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48713477882105,"sku":"9781540647412","price":14.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/Wkk4zP8k-c9781540647412.webp?v=1784989640","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-shoes-of-abu-kassim-an-arabian-folktale-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
