{"product_id":"2940170137534","title":"Dickens and Twain: Capturing 19th Century Britain and America","description":"Few writers are more often read, and better loved, than Charles Dickens and Samuel Langhorne Clemens---Mark Twain.   Many of the characters populating their novels have become household words, cultural landmarks in their own right---Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, David Copperfield and Oliver Twist.   It is as if we have known them life-long.   In this course we take a look at the lives and works of both authors, comparing, and celebrating them, in their use of use language, in their humor---and both, of course, are master humorists---in their evocation of character, and in their evocation and evaluation of the social world in which they find themselves.","brand":"Recorded Books, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47102287216880,"sku":"2940170137534","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940170137534_p0.jpg?v=1763703014","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940170137534","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
