{"product_id":"time-pieces-bernard-sharratt-9781910956069","title":"Time Pieces","description":"In three very different kinds of writing, this short book tackles various facets of the curious problems of time. A reflexive essay probes what it is that we are measuring when we try to consider our familiar time-based cultural activities. A review of a very ambitious but unwritten book investigates how we might radically change the way we spend our working time. And a satirically deconstructive reading of one of Derrida's most influential essays suggests an alternative approach even to our thinking about time. \u003cbr\u003eRanging from an anticipation of the implications of 3-D printing to a critique of the politics of deconstruction and a reconsideration of 'socially necessary labour time' this brief work will take only an hour to read but a long time to assimilate.\u003cp\u003ePraise for Sharratt's previous work: \u003cbr\u003e.. an absolutely important first-rate book -Terry Eagleton \u003cbr\u003e.. fascinating, entertaining, . . very impressive-David Lodge \u003cbr\u003e.. the most richly-packed book by an English critic in recent years-Nicholas Tredell \u003cbr\u003e.. astonishing, powerful, playful, brilliantly clever and attractive-Fred Inglis \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bernard Sharratt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1910956066\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781910956069\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Crisis Quarterly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/09\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 92\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.19d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bernard Sharratt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442633847039,"sku":"9781910956069","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4fe591f3-1895-47c3-beb4-a9d37c239703.jpg?v=1777198720","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/time-pieces-bernard-sharratt-9781910956069","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
