{"product_id":"redburn-minervas-owl-9781533257086","title":"Redburn","description":"Herman Melville a] (August 1, 1819 - September 28, 1891) was an American novelist, short story writer, and poet of the American Renaissance period best known for Typee (1846), a romantic account of his experiences in Polynesian life, and his whaling novel Moby-Dick (1851). His work was almost forgotten during his last thirty years. His writing draws on his experience at sea as a common sailor, exploration of literature and philosophy, and engagement in the contradictions of American society in a period of rapid change. He developed a complex, baroque style: the vocabulary is rich and original, a strong sense of rhythm infuses the elaborate sentences, the imagery is often mystical or ironic, and the abundance of allusion extends to Scripture, myth, philosophy, literature, and the visual arts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Minervaｴs Owl, Herman Melville\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1533257086\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781533257086\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/17\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 340\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.71d","brand":"Minervaｴs Owl","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43991519068415,"sku":"9781533257086","price":13.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fb23a673-c7b6-4a57-b2fd-7211c9563293.jpg?v=1683310771","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/redburn-minervas-owl-9781533257086","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
