{"product_id":"9780198163770","title":"The All-Around Man: Selected Letters of Percy Grainger, 1914-1961","description":"\u003cp\u003ePercy Grainger was one of the most colourful of this century's cultural figures. The All-Round Man depicts that scrambling diversity through seventy-six challenging letters from Grainger's \"American\" years, 1914-61. These letters are fascination to read: they are cultivated \"rambles\" (as Grainger actually called several of his compositions), not dissimilar to today's telephone conversations. Often written in Grainger's crunchy \"Blue-eyed English\", they explore uninhibitedly every corner of his public and private life. They reflect the magnificent attempts of a great but flawed mind to encompass the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47011947544816,"sku":"9780198163770","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780198163770_p0.jpg?v=1763666011","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780198163770","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
