{"product_id":"9781839040030","title":"Little Wars by Steven Carl McCasland","description":"A dinner party during the Second World War unites celebrated writers Agatha Christie, Lillian Hellman, Dorothy Parker, Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas - with a mysterious guest.   With copious booze flowing, acid-tongued barbs flying, and the threat of global conflict looming, the guests - and the world around them - are close to boiling point. Everyone has a confession. Someone has a secret.   Set in the French Alps in 1940, Steven Carl McCasland's Little Wars is an enthralling, entertaining and ultimately moving portrait of seven exceptional women - and a thrilling fiction based on truth.   It was workshopped Off-Off-Broadway, first performed in 2015, and received an acclaimed digital premiere in 2020, featuring Linda Bassett, Sarah Solemani, Juliet Stevenson and Sophie Thompson. It provides glorious opportunities for an all-female cast to play some of the greatest literary figures of the twentieth century.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56307951894901,"sku":"9781839040030","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781839040030.jpg?v=1762805948","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781839040030","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
