{"product_id":"9780140444704-secondhand-the-fiancee","title":"The Fiancee","description":"The diversity of stories in this collection is great, their psychological depth and philosophical richness even greater. Chekhov (1860-1904) composed most of the stories in the 1890s, although 'The Fiancee, ' written at the same time as his dramatic masterpiece, \"The Cherry Orchard, \" was not completed until 1903; 'The Fiancee' represents a turning point in Chekhov's career, with the high note of optimism and with its heroine, Nadya, 'a positive woman of action, ' who ultimately rejects philistine materialism for a life of hard work and self-denial.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49176460787931,"sku":"9780140444704-SECONDHAND","price":8.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/51cef965-fce8-4765-af0f-2274a70ebfee.jpg?v=1787571315","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780140444704-secondhand-the-fiancee","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
