{"product_id":"books-indian-ink-by-tom-stoppard","title":"Indian Ink","description":"Flora Crewe, a young poet travelling India in 1930, has her portrait painted by a local artist.  More than fifty years later, the artist's son visits Flora's sister in London while her would-be biographer is following a cold trail in India.  The alternation of place and period in Tom Stoppard's play (based on his radio play In the Native State) makes for a rich and moving exploration of intimate lives set against one of the great shifts of history, the emergence of the Indian sub-continent from the grip of Empire.  Indian Ink was first performed at the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre, Guildford, and opened at the Aldwych Theatre, London, in February 1995.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53673256255761,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780571175567.jpg?v=1781524418","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-indian-ink-by-tom-stoppard","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
