{"product_id":"invitation-to-a-beheading","title":"Invitation to a Beheading","description":"\u003cp\u003eWritten in Berlin in 1934, Invitation to a Beheading contains all the surprise, excitement and magical intensity of a work created in two brief weeks of sustained inspiration. It takes us into the fantastic prison-world of Cincinnatus, a man condemned to death and spending his last days in prison not quite knowing when the end will come. Nabokov described the book as 'a violin in a void. The worldling will deem it a trick. Old men will hurriedly turn from it to regional romances and the lives of public figures ... The evil-minded will perceive in little Emmie a sister of little Lolita ... But I know a few readers who will jump up, ruffling their hair'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaperback \/ softback | 192 pages | Published April 2001\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GARDNERS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63977821143389,"sku":"9780141185606","price":13.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/3459\/8749\/files\/9780141185606.jpg?v=1783145450","url":"https:\/\/www.thebookmark.ie\/products\/invitation-to-a-beheading","provider":"The Bookmark ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
