{"product_id":"love-goes-to-press-martha-gellhorn-9780803226777","title":"Love Goes to Press: A Comedy in Three Acts","description":"Written in the aftermath of World War II, \u003ci\u003eLove Goes to Press\u003c\/i\u003e opened in London in 1946 and on Broadway in 1947. At the time a relief for the survivors of Blitzkrieg and ration cards, today it is a devilishly entertaining portrayal of the Battle of the Sexes. In this romantic farce, set in a press camp on the Italian front in 1944, two women war correspondents--smart, sexy, and famous for scooping their male competitors--struggle to balance their professional lives with their love lives. The American literary tradition is replete with stories of \"men without women,\" but in \u003ci\u003eLove Goes to Press\u003c\/i\u003e Martha Gellhorn and Virginia Cowles have created a world of \"women without men.\" Complications ensue when one of our heroines unexpectedly encounters her ex-husband, a famous writer whom she had divorced on the grounds of plagiarism. This Bison Books edition features a preface and an updated afterword by Sandra Spanier discussing her recent archival discoveries, her experience of working with Gellhorn to publish the play for the first time, and the strong resemblance of the leading man to Gellhorn's ex-husband, Ernest Hemingway.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martha Gellhorn, Virginia Cowles\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0803226772\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780803226777\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bison Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.76h x 6.22w x 0.38d","brand":"Martha Gellhorn","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44173024952575,"sku":"9780803226777","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/love-goes-to-press-martha-gellhorn-9780803226777","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
