{"product_id":"9780984469314","title":"Who Was Changed and Who Was Dead","description":"\u003cbr\u003eFiction. This is the story of the Willoweed family and the English village in which they live. It begins mid-flood, ducks swimming in the drawing-room windows, \"quacking their approval\" as they sail around the room. \"What about my rose beds?\" demands Grandmother Willoweed. Her son shouts down her ear-trumpet that the garden is submerged, dead animals everywhere, she will be lucky to get a bunch. Then the miller drowns himself...then the butcher slits his throat...and a series of gruesome deaths plagues the villagers. The newspaper asks, \"Who will be smitten by this fatal madness next?\" Through it all, Comyns' unique voice weaves a text as wonderful as it is horrible, as beautiful as it is cruel. Originally published in England in 1954, this \"overlooked small masterpiece\" is a twisted, tragicomic gem.","brand":"New York Review Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47021118619888,"sku":"9780984469314","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780984469314_p0.jpg?v=1763889105","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780984469314","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
