{"product_id":"the-people-of-the-abyss-jack-london-9781723299179","title":"The People of the Abyss","description":"The People of the Abyss (1903) is a book by Jack London about life in the East End of London in 1902. He wrote this first-hand account after living in the East End (including the Whitechapel District) for several weeks, sometimes staying in workhouses or sleeping on the streets. In his attempt to understand the working-class of this deprived area of London the author stayed as a lodger with a poor family. The conditions he experienced and wrote about were the same as those endured by an estimated 500,000 of the contemporary London poor. London also used the expression \"the people of the abyss\" in his later dystopian novel The Iron Heel (1907).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jack London\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1723299170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781723299179\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/19\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.22d","brand":"Jack London","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44311376822527,"sku":"9781723299179","price":6.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_64b872c9-6b90-47e9-a0b6-84c145315a6c.jpg?v=1695722477","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-people-of-the-abyss-jack-london-9781723299179","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
