{"product_id":"the-vengeance-of-the-oval-gabriel-de-lautrec-9781612270098","title":"The Vengeance of the Oval Portrait","description":"The undisputed masterpiece of Gabriel de Lautrec (1867-1938), THE VENGEANCE OF THE OVAL PORTRAIT, which borrows its title from Edgar Allan Poe, is a collection of 28 stories at the crossroads of horror, fantasy and science fiction. Its singular inspiration owes as much to the author's predilection for dark humor, Grand Guignol and the mixing of genres, as it does to the influence of alcohol and hashish, which he used regularly. De Lautrec was a disciple of Alphonse Allais and the winner of the 1920 Humorists' Award. While he hid behind a smiling mask, his troubled personality is on display in this series of mysterious and thrilling tales. Reviewers have compared them variedly to Mark Twain, Edgar Allan Poe, H. G. Wells and Maurice Renard.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gabriel De Lautrec\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1612270093\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781612270098\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hollywood Comics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/29\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.58d","brand":"Gabriel De Lautrec","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47611787608319,"sku":"9781612270098","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d339dbfc-fa98-4827-9462-eaf4374a8a9a.jpg?v=1764516068","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-vengeance-of-the-oval-gabriel-de-lautrec-9781612270098","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
