{"product_id":"9781909585133","title":"The Age of Cardboard and String","description":"Shortlisted for the 2001 T. S. Eliot and Whitbread Poetry Prizes. A number of poems in this collection by Charles Boyle take their cue from Stendhal, whose characteristic blend of artfulness and candour - particularly evident in his unreliable memoirs - is sustained throughout the book. In material ranging from intimate narratives to social commentary, Boyle takes self-deception, mixed motives and honest misunderstandings as the norms of human behaviour, and delights in the comedy of errors that results. The collection was a Poetry Book Society Recommendation.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"CB editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47116116852976,"sku":"9781909585133","price":8.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781909585133_p0.jpg?v=1763624314","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781909585133","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
