{"product_id":"9781836282518","title":"Writings for a Car Boot Sale : Take the Box by Pamela Theophilus Gardner","description":"In Writings for a Car Boot Sale, Pamela Theophilus Gardner takes readers on a new literary journey with her eclectic mix of writing to suit all moods. In this collection of short, entertaining fiction, fascinating non-fiction and academic essays, there is something for every reader.   The book opens with a series of short stories; a selection of fictional sketches and narrative in a variety of forms, including realistic, fable and drama. This section concludes with a historical story, based on an episode in the life of the potter and ceramic artist, William Billingsley - which links nicely to Pamela's second collection: non-fiction ceramic mysteries.   Well illustrated, the mysteries are accessible to all readers, with or without an interest in ceramics. Dating from early to late nineteenth century: social history, and the characters populating the stories, feature as strongly as does the porcelain.   A third section comprises more challenging essays. They stem from Pamela's academic interest and professional experience in diet and health; a blend of science and the politics of food policy.   The book concludes with musings on writing in general. True or untrue.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56307894681973,"sku":"9781836282518","price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781836282518.jpg?v=1762805693","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781836282518","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
