{"product_id":"billy-budd-sailor-and-selected-tales","title":"Billy Budd, Sailor and Selected Tales","description":"\u003cp\u003e Outwardly a compelling narrative of events aboard a British man-of-war during the turmoil of the Napoleonic Wars, Billy Budd, Sailor is a nautical recasting of the Fall, a parable of good and evil, a meditation on justice and political governance, and a searching portrait of three extraordinary men. The passion it has aroused in its readers over the years is a measure of how deeply it addresses some of the fundamental questions of experience that every age must reexamine for itself. The selection in this volume represents the best of Melville's shorter fiction, and uses the most authoritative texts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003ePublished: 2009\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003ePages: 464\u003cbr\u003eLanguage: English\u003cbr\u003eISBN 10: 0199538913\u003cbr\u003eISBN 13: 9780199538911\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Herman Melville","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50248070201610,"sku":"","price":12.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0282\/6066\/3399\/files\/9780199538911.jpg?v=1730982963","url":"https:\/\/www.shakespeareandsons.com\/products\/billy-budd-sailor-and-selected-tales","provider":"Shakespeare \u0026 Sons Buchhandel GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
