{"product_id":"9781926836119","title":"Roy \u0026 Me: This Is Not a Memoir","description":"Maurice Yacowar challenges genre and form in Roy\u0026amp;Me, a cross between memoir and fiction, truth and distortion. It is the exploration of Yacowar’s relationship with Roy Farran—soldier, politician, author, mentor—and his conflict with Farran’s anti-Semitic past.Best known for his service with the British Special Air Service during World War II, Roy Farran served as a politician in the Legislative Assembly of Alberta for Premier Peter Lougheed. During his time in Israel as a soldier, Farran allegedly kidnapped and murdered a sixteen-year-old member of the Lehi group, also known as the Stern Gang.Roy\u0026amp;Me is a memoir that edges toward fiction by venturing into Roy Farran’s thoughts, drawing simultaneously on his writings and Yacowar’s own imagination.","brand":"Athabasca University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47171179643120,"sku":"9781926836119","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781926836119_p0.jpg?v=1763635851","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781926836119","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
