{"product_id":"the-invention-of-love","title":"The Invention of Love","description":"“Vintage Stoppard in its intelligence and wit.” —Variety\nIt is 1936, and A. E. Housman is being ferried across the river Styx, glad to be dead at last—yet his memories are dramatically alive. Confronting his younger self from the vantage of death, Housman thinks back to the man he loved, who could not return his feelings, and considers the Oxford of his youth, suffused with the flamboyant influence of the Wildean Aesthetic movement and the restrictions of High Victorian morality.\nWinner of the Evening Standard’s Best Play Award, The Invention of Love inhabits Housman’s imagination as if a dream, illuminating both the pain of hopeless love and the passion displaced into poetry.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0802135811\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0802135811.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Stoppard, Tom\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\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: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
