{"product_id":"the-night-of-christmas-george-sand-9781479400720","title":"The Night of Christmas \u0026 an Exotic Flower: Two Plays","description":"Although French author George Sand is still widely read as a novelist and feminist, her theatrical works have fallen into undeserved oblivion. THE NIGHT OF CHRISTMAS is adapted from a tale by the well-known German horror writer, E. T. A. Hoffmann. Sand pits the rigid rationalist Max against his friend Peregrinus Tyss, who believes in a world where sentiment plays a role. Peregrinus loves the young woman, Nanni, but knows he has no chance to win her hand. Then on Christmas Eve, the ghost of his old master returns, and teaches Max--and Peregrinus--some basic lessons about the possibilities of life and love. In AN EXOTIC FLOWER, the artist Julian has been watching his neighbor, the beautiful widow Stella, whom he admires from afar; but it takes Julian's cousin, Mark, to create the circumstance in which an \"exotic flower\" actually makes the relationship possible. Two very entertaining plays by a first-rate observer of the human condition!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George Sand\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1479400726\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781479400720\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\/12\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d","brand":"George Sand","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442278740223,"sku":"9781479400720","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c4264b5e-3f43-4724-aa11-0153bdaab145.jpg?v=1777196320","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-night-of-christmas-george-sand-9781479400720","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
