{"product_id":"night-and-day-tom-stoppard-9780802128973","title":"Night and Day","description":"Tom Stoppard's stimulating, funny play \u003ci\u003eNight and Day\u003c\/i\u003e is set in a fictional African country, Kambawe, which is ruled by a leader not unlike Idi Amin. The nation is faced with a Soviet-backed revolution which quickly brings newsmen from around the world to cover the story. Using the characters Ruth; her husband, Geoffrey Carson, a mine owner; an Australian veteran reporter, Dick Wagner; and an idealistic young journalist, Jacob Milne, Stoppard pits the ideal of a Free Press against that of working-class solidarity. During the course of the play, each character is given an opportunity to make his case heard as the revolution unfolds. More traditional in style than most of Stoppard's oeuvre, \u003ci\u003eNight and Day\u003c\/i\u003e is a provocative and funny look at exploitation and corruption, journalistic ethics, freedom of the press, and marital infidelity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tom Stoppard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0802128971\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802128973\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Grove Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/18\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 124\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.40d","brand":"Tom Stoppard","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988260487423,"sku":"9780802128973","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ed1d2c21-300b-44ba-9896-2d1073fee759.jpg?v=1683293528","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/night-and-day-tom-stoppard-9780802128973","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
