{"product_id":"the-lost-ones-a-story","title":"The Lost Ones: A Story","description":"63, [1] pp. Samuel Beckett was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1969; his literary output of plays, novels, stories and poetry has earned him an uncontested place as one of the greatest writers of our time. Much like a theme proposed by a composer - upon which performing musicians can improvise all manner of personal variations - Samuel Beckett offers us a theme in The Lost Ones. With mathematical and geometric precision, he creates a completely self-contained microcosm - a \"flattened cylinder\" - which he populates with a multitude of captive beings. Within it, he establishes distinct castes, precise hierarchies, and extremely rigorous laws. Yet the interpretation of the theme remains open; indeed, its infinite richness lies in the multiplicity of readings it inspires.","brand":"Grove Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50654222647366,"sku":"2354847","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1232\/9510\/files\/2354847.jpg?v=1792460914","url":"https:\/\/ym-demo.myshopify.com\/products\/the-lost-ones-a-story","provider":"Yesterday's Muse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
