{"product_id":"the-martian-george-du-maurier-9781410100535","title":"The Martian","description":"George Du Maurier's classic The Martian: A Novel, originally published in 1897, was one of the earlier science-fiction works. George Du Maurier, the grandfather of Daphne Du Maurier, was a celebrated novelist and illustrator whose work ran regularly in Punch. He's best recalled today for his famous novel Trilby, which introduced the evil manipulator Svengali to the world. This is a later novel, brilliantly embellished with dozens of Du Maurier's illustrations. H.G. Wells aside, this is perhaps the first work to feature a Martian, and came just before Wells enjoyed his success with the War of the Worlds (originally published in 1898).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George Du Maurier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1410100537\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781410100535\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fredonia Books (NL)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/29\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.96h x 5.08w x 1.14d","brand":"George Du Maurier","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48458080256255,"sku":"9781410100535","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5a10d88e-1231-44a2-85d1-a0db3c2d0117.jpg?v=1777402296","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-martian-george-du-maurier-9781410100535","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
