{"product_id":"9781482379501","title":"People of the Abyss","description":"A profound and moving piece of investigative journalism, Jack London's study of the London underworld remains, a century after it was written, a timely tale of poverty and injustice. In 1902, Jack London purchased some second-hand clothes, rented a room in the East End, and set out to discover how the London poor lived. His research makes shocking reading. Moving through the slums as one of the poor; eating, drinking and socialising with the underclass; queuing to get into a doss-house, London was scandalised and brutalised by the experience of living rough in Britain's capital. His clear-eyed reflections on the iniquities of class are a shaming testament to the persistence of social inequality in modern Britain.","brand":"Amazon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47054796423408,"sku":"9781482379501","price":6.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781482379501","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
