{"product_id":"9780571383481","title":"The daring young man on the flying trapeze","description":"\u003cp\u003eDepression-era San Francisco, home to the lost souls of many races: immigrants, struggling writers and heartsick adolescents, collecting in automats, nightschools, movies and barbershops, working in vineyards, telegram exchanges and as salesmen - and always revelling in being alive. A bestseller on publication in 1934, 'The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze' was the debut collection by the Pulitzer Prize-winning (and rejecting) Armenian-American writer William Saroyan. Fusing Whitman's transcendence with the eccentric characterisation of Steinbeck and Salinger, and foreshadowing the rhapsodies of the Beats, his prose is a heart-expanding experience that intoxicates to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faber \u0026 Faber","offers":[{"title":"William \/ Saroyan","offer_id":55139433382261,"sku":"9780571383481","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/files\/9780571383481_a55f2eb9-1b2e-46fb-b3ad-5d0770d5102a.jpg?v=1741271671","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.live\/products\/9780571383481","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
