During a bleak, unending winter, he embarks on a string of violent and sordid crimes that set him on a path from which he can never return. Georges Simenon's matchless novel is a brutal, compelling portrayal of a world without pity; a devastating journey through a psychological no-man's land.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pdp-spec\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePublisher information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublisher:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"publisher\"\u003ePenguin Books Ltd\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eISBN:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"isbn\"\u003e9780241258569\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNumber of pages:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"numberOfPages\"\u003e304\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDimensions:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"height\"\u003e197\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan itemprop=\"width\"\u003e131\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan itemprop=\"depth\"\u003e19\u003c\/span\u003e mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eWeight:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"weight\"\u003e228 g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLanguage:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"inLanguage\"\u003eEnglish (Language of text), French (Original language of a translated text)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Starlight Library","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":53493891072313,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"IQD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0951\/4624\/6457\/files\/9780241258569-jacket-large.webp?v=1781981953","url":"https:\/\/starlightlibrary.shop\/products\/the-snow-was-dirty-by-georges-simenon","provider":"Starlight Library","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
