{"product_id":"the-blaireau-affair-doug-skinner-9780692519523","title":"The Blaireau Affair","description":"Adapted to film four times, \"L'Affaire Blaireau\" has remained popular and in print in France since its original appearance in 1899. This is its first publication in English. It is humorist Alphonse Allais's only novel and, in the words of translator Doug Skinner: \"It isn't quite as wild or cruel as his early stories, but I find it delicious anyway. Summer in the provinces, the shrewd but impressionable Blaireau, futile political squabbles, a ridiculous but charming love story, what more could one want? And innocence is rewarded!\" Indeed, this novel is a rare find to be savored by the author's growing circle of fans in America.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Doug Skinner,Alphonse Allais\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0692519521\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780692519523\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Black Scat Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/31\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.50d","brand":"Doug Skinner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48216500895999,"sku":"9780692519523","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b0c6dd3a-3eea-4361-af56-fa3405751137.jpg?v=1771991417","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-blaireau-affair-doug-skinner-9780692519523","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
