{"product_id":"books-amsterdam-tales-by-helen-constantine","title":"Amsterdam Tales","description":"In this volume Paul Vincent presents a compelling collection of prose fiction, memoirs and anecdotes centring on Amsterdam from the seventeenth to the twenty-first century. His selection offers a rare insight into the history and culture of the city. The subjects range from Rembrandt to the persecution of the Jews in World War 2, from barricades in a working-class district during the Depression to a writer's unhealthy obsession with a massage parlour. These eighteen newly-translated tales give the reader, and the traveller, a tantalizing glimpse of the Amsterdam that lies beyond the tourist guidebooks.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53510105596177,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780198806493.jpg?v=1778171066","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-amsterdam-tales-by-helen-constantine","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
