{"product_id":"jane-austen-and-the-polite-donald-measham-9781847538758","title":"Jane Austen and the Polite Puzzle","description":"This is a Jane Austen entertainment, part documentary; part well-grounded conjecture. You are asked to entertain an idea; the idea that Jane Austen as a girl played a lost (but genuine) card game called 'The New impenetrable Secret or Polite Puzzle.' You will find yourselves involved in a Jane Austen Discovery - appreciating the double significance of this phrase, as you see the game re-enacted by a pair of Regency young ladies and their governess. There is a demonstration of the light which the game and its sources throw upon Austen's 'Pride and Prejudice' and 'Persuasion', presented in its social and historical context, and with a unique complete set of the cards.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Donald Measham\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1847538754\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781847538758\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/16\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Donald Measham","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46292968931583,"sku":"9781847538758","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_874cbd6a-ccd9-4d43-afba-25d3ccef87db.jpg?v=1730210700","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jane-austen-and-the-polite-donald-measham-9781847538758","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
