{"product_id":"9780241808108","title":"The Green Shutters - Howard Curtis","description":"Sin and green shutters: both entailed lots of unexpected consequences that weren't easy to see at first glance . . . In the autumn years of his illustrious career, `The Great' Emile Maugin, a celebrated actor, receives devastating news: he does not have long left to live. Hounded by rage, alcoholism and the memories of his fractured childhood in the Vend�e marshes, he haunts the stage doors and dimly-lit bars of pre-war Paris. Yet, faintly visible on the horizon of his mind, stands a white house with green shutters and manicured lawns, whose inhabitants lead the `normal life' that lies just beyond Maugin's reach. First published in 1950, The Green Shutters cuts to the depths of the human soul and asks: what is left to us when time runs out?","brand":"Howard Curtis","offers":[{"title":"208 pages \/ 12\/11\/2026 \/ Classic fiction (pre c 1945)","offer_id":57556965196151,"sku":"9780241808108","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9454\/1624\/files\/9780241808108.jpg?v=1791968646","url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9780241808108","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
