{"product_id":"weights-and-measures","title":"Weights and Measures","description":"\u003cp\u003eAt his wife's insistence, upstanding citizen and artillery officer Anselm Eibenschütz leaves his beloved Austro-Hungarian army and takes up a civilian post, as Inspector of Weights and Measures in a remote backwater near the Russian border. At first he does everything by the book, but gradually he finds himself adrift in a world of petty corruption, bribery and drunkenness - and undone by his passion for the beautiful gypsy Euphemia. A haunting evocation of Eastern Europe's borderlands in the early twentieth century, Weights and Measures is also the story of the disintegration of a good man.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003ePublished: 2017\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Penguin Books Ltd\u003cbr\u003ePages: 112\u003cbr\u003eLanguage: English\u003cbr\u003eISBN 13: 9780241307441\u003cbr\u003eISBN 10: 0241307449\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Joseph Roth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45486989181194,"sku":"","price":12.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0282\/6066\/3399\/files\/9780241307441.jpg?v=1713456187","url":"https:\/\/www.shakespeareandsons.com\/products\/weights-and-measures","provider":"Shakespeare \u0026 Sons Buchhandel GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
