{"product_id":"franz-kafkas-its-a-wonderful-life","title":"Franz Kafka's It's a Wonderful Life","description":"Stumbling over how to complete the first sentence of what was to be his masterpiece \"Metamorphosis,\" Kafka writes: ...Gregor Samsa woke up one morning and found he had been transformed into a giant...\" A giant what? A banana perhaps? A powerful sustained joke on both the perceived image of Franz Kafka and the powerful sentiment of Frank Capra's \"It's a Wonderful Life.\" Also includes \"Seven Gates\" - Brothers David and Daryl travel home to their family farm for Christmas; \"The Deal\" - A clandestine meeting between the world's two most powerful businessmen who negotiate a deal so immense, so awe-inspiring, so \"BIG.\" The meeting progresses from the enlightening to the bizarre; \"Mr. McAllister's Cigarette Holder\" - In 1961 Georgia, Mr. McAllister lives alone. His reality leaves little room for pride, except for a unique cigarette holder he has. On a trip to town with his albino girlfriend, a sacrificial gift saves his pride and allows him to retain his dignity.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00005ASP8\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00005ASP8.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Collins, Elaine|Cox, Julie|Grant, Richard E.|Howarth, Samantha|Doyle, Jessie|Logan, Phyllis|Luxton, Justine|Letts, Crispin|Reiss, Laura|Stott, Ken|Woodhouse, Lucy|Tait, Thea\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Dvd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
