{"product_id":"the-companion-to-a-tale-andrew-sanders-9780367749712","title":"The Companion to 'a Tale of Two Cities'","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book, first published in 1988, reveals the great care Dickens took with the planning and preparation of \u003ci\u003eA Tale of Two Cities\u003c\/i\u003e and its roots. It also explores the aspects of Dickens's life, especially his interest in private theatricals, which contributed to the genesis of the novel. For the first time the historical sources for the very individual account of the French Revolution presented in \u003ci\u003eA Tale of Two Cities\u003c\/i\u003e are examined, and the book investigates the novelist's debt to French and English eye-witnesses. This Companion identifies the multitude of allusions to what Dickens often regarded as the whims of eighteenth-century justice, religion, philosophy, fashion and society. It provides the modern reader with both fundamental sources of information and a fascinating account of the creation of a complex historical novel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Sanders\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367749718\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367749712\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/15\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.41d","brand":"Andrew Sanders","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44072439349503,"sku":"9780367749712","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8c23415b-2b22-46ee-84c2-5e98d2dfbf0c.jpg?v=1685441974","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-companion-to-a-tale-andrew-sanders-9780367749712","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
