{"product_id":"9781847498700","title":"The Last Day of a Condemned Man by Victor Hugo","description":"A   first-person diary of a prisoner's final day before being executed for an   unspecified crime, Victor Hugo's poignant tale vividly conveys the mental   anguish of a man confronted with the intransigent mechanism of justice, as   his mind seeks refuge in recollections from his past and philosophical   musings on his inevitable fate.        As relevant today as when it was first published in 1829, The Last Day of a   Condemned Man is an eloquent plea for compassion and a masterpiece of realist   fiction. This edition includes the Preface to the 1832 edition of the book, a   manifest of Hugo's personal opinions, `A Comedy about a Tragedy' and `Claude   Gueux', an early example of \"true crime\" fiction.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56308509868405,"sku":"9781847498700","price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781847498700.jpg?v=1762807850","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781847498700","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
