{"product_id":"book-of-memories","title":"Book Of Memories","description":"A Book of Memories is made up of three first-person narratives: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first, that of a young Hungarian writer and his fated love for a German poet; we also learn of the narrator's adolescence in Budapest, when he experiences the downfall of his once upper-class but now pro-Communist family. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA second memoir, alternating with the first, is a novel the narrator is composing about a refined Belle Epoque aesthete, whose anti-bourgeois transgressions seem like emotionally overcharged versions of the narrator's own experiences. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA third voice is that of a childhood friend who, after the narrator's return to his homeland, offers an apparently more objective account of their friendship. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTogether these brilliantly coloured lives are integrated into a powerful work of tragic intensity.","brand":"Vintage Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59376031236431,"sku":"9780099766315","price":24.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0061\/0372\/8217\/files\/171a4fb96d43464aacbbbd68aab2ebde9780099766315_1.jpg?v=1793772281","url":"https:\/\/www.suomalainen.com\/products\/book-of-memories","provider":"Suomalainen.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
