{"product_id":"9781788169776","title":"Big Snake Little Snake : An Inquiry into Risk by DBC Pierre","description":"Big Snake Little Snake is a cascade of true stories  by DBC Pierre, recorded while on his way to make  a short film with a parrot in Trinidad, which not  only examines the nature of gambling, the love  affair between gambler and game and the mindset  of obsessive practitioners, but aims to shed light  on the invisible odds and outrageous chances of  everyday life on Earth. Snakes symbolise a road in a Trinidadian numbers  game based on dreams and superstition. The  inquiry was prompted by a little snake on Pierre's  doorstep. 'If writers were athletes, DBC Pierre would be  hanging out with the skydivers, the stunt-snowboarders and the white-water rafters'  Independent 'One of the most original and seriously funny  narrative voices' Observer\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56305856741749,"sku":"9781788169776","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781788169776.jpg?v=1762798622","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781788169776","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
