{"product_id":"2940013004740","title":"Angels \u0026 Ministers w\/ Direct link technology(A Classic Drama )","description":"The bloom upon the grape only fully appears when it is ripe for death. Then, at a touch, it passes, delicate and evanescent as the frailest blossoms of spring. Just at this moment the Victorian age has that bloom upon it--autumnal, not spring-like--which, in the nature of things, cannot last. That bloom I have tried to illumine before time wipes it away.\u003cbr\u003eUnder this rose-shaded lamp of history, domestically designed, I would have these old characters look young again, or not at least as though they belonged to another age. This wick which I have kindled is short, and will not last; but, so long as it does, it throws on them the commentary of a contemporary light. In another generation the bloom which it seeks to irradiate will be gone; nor will anyone then be able to present them to us as they really were.","brand":"New Century Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47147394466032,"sku":"2940013004740","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013004740_p0.jpg?v=1763575519","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013004740","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
