{"product_id":"9781420947342","title":"Civil War Stories","description":"Newspaperman, short-story writer, poet and satirist, Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) is one of the most striking and unusual literary figures America has produced. Dubbed \"Bitter Bierce\" for his vitriolic wit and biting satire.\u003cp\u003e Bierce's stories employ a buildup of suggestive realistic detail to produce grim and vivid tales often disturbing in their mood of fatalism and impending ealamity. Hauntingly suggestive, they offer excellent examples of the author's dark pessimism and storytelling power.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digireads.com Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47153158226160,"sku":"9781420947342","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781420947342_p0.jpg?v=1763739422","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781420947342","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
