{"product_id":"headlong-hall-thomas-love-peacock-9781107030732","title":"Headlong Hall","description":"Thomas Love Peacock (1785‒1866) is one of the most distinctive prose satirists of the Romantic period. The Cambridge Edition of the Novels of Thomas Love Peacock offers the first complete text of these works to appear for more than half a century. Headlong Hall (1816), Peacock's earliest work of dialogic and satirical fiction, was the most popular of his tales during his lifetime and considered his signature novel. An episodic plot and a country house setting provide the framework for a sparkling intellectual comedy that embraces music, gastronomy, philosophy, politics, craniology, painting, and landscape gardening. This edition supplies an authoritative text and a comprehensive introduction tracing the genesis, composition, publication, reception, and revision of the novel. Extensive explanatory notes throw light on the Welsh backdrop to the fiction as well as on the literary, political, social, and intellectual contexts of Peacock's innovative topical satire.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Love Peacock\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107030730\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107030732\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/13\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 446\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.58h x 5.43w x 1.26d","brand":"Thomas Love Peacock","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44042638459135,"sku":"9781107030732","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_97b0b850-fcde-4289-9716-8f81080ee476.jpg?v=1684962667","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/headlong-hall-thomas-love-peacock-9781107030732","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
