{"product_id":"2940045146951","title":"Playing White","description":"Winter season. Winter holidays. Playing white chess. Playing white. Set in St Petersburg, the story may be called a winter tale. The main personage is Oscar Maria Graf, great traveller and younger contemporary of Oscar Wilde. A Stenbock-like figure, by his origin and his dabbling in literature, Oscar Graf is much hotter, more active, able-bodied, pragmatic and of great vitality than Eric Stenbock (1860-1895) who is no more, by the time of the story. Time: the first year of Wilde’s imprisonment. On the Christmas eve, Oscar and his boyfriend Felix receive some news which whirls them away to a mystery of the past. All personages are aged 20+. Happy ending.“Many believe creativity is mystery, and I always knew that my body is the key.” (Lara Biyuts. Silver Thread Spinner)“Why is the mouth for silver ringing words or the right hand for a hilt or lute or quill intended? Could I accept the drab existence of the Tin Age? Late to be born.” (Lara Biyuts)“The daylight is for lips that have said amen. The night--it will remember you, forgetting of itself that full of you.” (Lara Biyuts)","brand":"Lara Biyuts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47077981028592,"sku":"2940045146951","price":3.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940045146951_p0.jpg?v=1763969730","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940045146951","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
