{"product_id":"9781908694171","title":"Fantomas: The Corpse Who Kills","description":"FANTOMAS is the Emperor of Crime, the Lord of Terror, the Genius of Evil, the nihilistic anti-hero of a series of sublime pulps, books brimming with motifs of the \"marvellous\": nuns, coffins, severed hands, daggers, masks, bells that bleed, corpses, poison flowers, gloves of human skin, lunatics and labyrinths. Fantômas loves criminal atrocities and random acts of \"beautiful-compulsive\" violence, carnage on a mass scale, outrageous theft, arson and destruction, virtuoso displays of terrorism and chaos compounded by the brutality of the Paris street-gangs under his command. FANTOMAS: THE CORPSE WHO KILLS (Le Mort Qui Tue, 1911), the third and perhaps most inventive book in this astonishing series, was acclaimed by the Surrealists for its dream-like imagery, wanton cruelty, and gallows-black humour. This new edition includes a detailed introduction on Fantômas and the Surrealists.","brand":"Elektron Ebooks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47177614852336,"sku":"9781908694171","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781908694171_p0.jpg?v=1763621771","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781908694171","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
