{"product_id":"richard-of-conisbrough-christopher-webster-9798224847983","title":"Richard of Conisbrough","description":"\u003cp\u003eRichard of Conisbrough was born in Conisbrough Castle only a few hundred yards from the author's family home in Castle Avenue, and of all the great noblemen who owned Conisbrough Castle, he was the one who spent most time there. Rather than tell his story in novel form, as the author has done with other castle characters, he has chosen to tell it in the form of a play in the style of William Shakespeare. Richard's story is well-suited to a play in this style of William Shakespeare as it is a prequel to the story of Richard III. Part of the subject matter, the Southampton Plot, was treated by the bard in his play \u003cem\u003eHenry V, \u003c\/em\u003e and the main character is typical of many 'bastard' malcontents of Elizabethan drama, such as Don John in \u003cem\u003eMeasure for Measure. \u003c\/em\u003eIt is, of course, nowhere near up the the standard of the Bard, but there are some felicitous passages (mainly stolen from him), and those who know and love Conisbrough will appreciate this retelling of Richard's story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher Webster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798224847983\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ekp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/19\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.19d","brand":"Christopher Webster","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48241829904639,"sku":"9798224847983","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9c7b5839-ea1e-48e1-87f0-19a3e944ab7b.jpg?v=1772656116","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/richard-of-conisbrough-christopher-webster-9798224847983","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
