{"product_id":"9781466835146","title":"Pictor's Metamorphoses: and Other Fantasies","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn the spring of 1922, several months after completing \u003ci\u003eSiddhartha\u003c\/i\u003e, Hermann Hesse wrote a fairy tale that was also a love story, inspired by the woman who was to become his second wife. That story, \u003ci\u003ePictor's Metamorphoses\u003c\/i\u003e, is the centerpiece of this anthology of Hesse's luminous short fiction. Based on \u003ci\u003eThe Arabian Nights\u003c\/i\u003e and the work of the Brothers Grimm, the nineteen stories collected here represent a half century of Hesse's short writings. They display the full range of Hesse's lifetime fascination with fantasy--as dream, fairy tale, satire, or allegory.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Farrar, Straus and Giroux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47125853733104,"sku":"9781466835146","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781466835146_p0.jpg?v=1763762392","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781466835146","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
