{"product_id":"saving-the-queen-theophile-gautier-9781479400669","title":"Saving the Queen: A Comedy of Cape and Sword","description":"Well-known French writer Théophile Gautier and Bernard Lopez combine their talents in this send-up of the cloak-and-sword dramas so popular with the Romantics. When the Spanish Queen's horse runs away with her, two unknown caballeros rescue Elizabeth from certain death--despite the fact that Spanish law prohibits anyone but the King and her closest attendants from touching her. But the Queen is not ungrateful, and Doña Beatrix, a Lady-in-Waiting, promises to marry the unknown savior, sight unseen, if the Queen can somehow save her rescuer from the capital punishment demanded by statute. A comedy of errors ensues, with two possible suitors pressing their claims upon Beatrix--and also on the Queen! A delightful and hilarious drama that should play well to modern audiences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Theophile Gautier,Bernard Lopez\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1479400661\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781479400669\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Borgo Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/02\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.36d","brand":"Theophile Gautier","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442278609151,"sku":"9781479400669","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dfcc538b-16a4-4335-937f-465627196532.jpg?v=1777196320","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/saving-the-queen-theophile-gautier-9781479400669","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
