{"product_id":"letters-from-iceland","title":"Letters From Iceland","description":"In the summer of 1936, W. H. Auden and Louis MacNeice visited Iceland on  commission to write a travel book, but found themselves capturing  concerns on a scale that were far more international. ''Though writing in  a \"holiday\" spirit,'' commented Auden, ''its authors were all the time  conscious of a threatening horizon to their picnic - world-wide  unemployment, Hitler growing everyday more powerful and a world-war more  inevitable.'' The result is the remarkable \u003ci\u003eLetters from Iceland\u003c\/i\u003e, a  collaboration in poetry and prose, reportage and correspondence,  published in 1937 with the Spanish Civil War newly in progress, beneath  the shadow of looming world war.","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57339835941246,"sku":"NW9780571283521","price":16.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9780571283521.jpg?v=1778693472","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-eu\/products\/letters-from-iceland","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
