{"product_id":"a-winnowing-robert-hugh-benson-9781602100053","title":"A Winnowing","description":"Mixing such seemingly incongruous elements as social satire, near-slapstick, and obsession with death, \"A Winnowing,\" first published in 1910, is the first of Robert Hugh Benson's \"mainstream novels.\" An undeservedly overlooked work today, the novel flays Edwardian society in terms that bring to mind the comedy of P. G. Wodehouse, and the black humor of Evelyn Waugh. The influence of \"A Winnowing\" is evident in Evelyn Waugh's take on the funeral industry in Southern California (\"The Loved One: An Anglo-American Tragedy\"). This edition features a foreword by Benson scholar Michael D. Greaney.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Hugh Benson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1602100055\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781602100053\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Once and Future Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.51d","brand":"Robert Hugh Benson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49082842251519,"sku":"9781602100053","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-winnowing-robert-hugh-benson-9781602100053","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
