{"product_id":"dreamers-9780811213219","title":"Dreamers","description":"The midnight sun illumines more than fishing and fjords in this remote northern Norwegian village. In fact, half-baked schemes and hilarity abound. Big Ove Rolandsen, telegraph operator, mad scientist, and local Casanova, trades wits, fists, and kisses with a host of quirky neighbors. He serenades the curate's wife and fights a drunken giant, but taking on Trader Mack, the town's fish-glue magnate, is a more difficult matter. Knut Hamsun, author of the acclaimed \u003cem\u003eHunger\u003c\/em\u003e and winner of the 1920 Nobel Prize for Literature, renders the dreams and dramas of these townsfolk with a delightfully light touch. Robert Bly has written that Hamsun has a magnifying glass on his eye, like a jeweler's, and \u003cem\u003eDreamers\u003c\/em\u003e gleams like a perfect, semi-precious stone.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"New Directions Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50413228097810,"sku":"9780811213219","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_6416f0a4-0053-478b-9262-e2a9c0359a8a.jpg?v=1729349969","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/dreamers-9780811213219","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
