{"product_id":"books-just-duffy-by-robin-jenkins","title":"Just Duffy","description":"In writing Just Duffy, a novel set amidst the urban decay of Lanarkshire, Robin Jenkins has created a modern-day Confession of a Justified Sinner.  Convinced of his own rectitude, appalled at the moral squalor around  him, Duffy declares war on society. Ridiculous, yet horrifying at the  same time, his campaign builds to a terrifying conclusion. Beset with  ambiguity, Duffy is a ferocious indictment of Calvinistic moral  certainty, of a struggle for good which results in only evil and  destruction. The deeply ironic title bears witness to the mismatch of  Duffy's aspiration against his own insignificance.  The themes of this novel are central to all Jenkins' work. In its stark simplicity Just Duffy  lays claim to being one of his most significant and powerful novels.  Its inexorable drive and power bear witness to a modern Greek tragedy  played out on a Scottish stage.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53671123550481,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780862415518.jpg?v=1781514821","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/books-just-duffy-by-robin-jenkins","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
