{"product_id":"9780143036937","title":"The City of Falling Angels","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwelve years ago, \u003ci\u003eMidnight in the Garden of Good and Evil\u003c\/i\u003e exploded into a monumental success, residing a record-breaking four years on the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller list (longer than any work of fiction or nonfiction had before) and turning John Berendt into a household name. \u003ci\u003eThe City of Falling Angels\u003c\/i\u003e is Berendt's first book since \u003ci\u003eMidnight\u003c\/i\u003e, and it immediately reminds one what all the fuss was about. Turning to the magic, mystery, and decadence of Venice, Berendt gradually reveals the truth behind a sensational fire that in 1996 destroyed the historic Fenice opera house. Encountering a rich cast of characters, Berendt tells a tale full of atmosphere and surprise as the stories build, one after the other, ultimately coming together to portray a world as finely drawn as a still-life painting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47008648986864,"sku":"9780143036937","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780143036937_p0.jpg?v=1763657312","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780143036937","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
